Digital Photo Image File Renaming
jhead, exiv2
To name only 2 that do the job perfectly using free and open-source software. Vlad schreef: Please find at the link below the program for renaming digital photo image files using date and time recorded by camera with the image. http://www.davar.net/MISCL/DOWNLOAD/RENPHOT.HTM Formal and easily achieved image file naming consistency simplifies organization and maintenance of large picture archives. RENPHOT generates unique names for image files recorded by a digital camera basing on date-time stamps contained within files. Generated file names are unique only within the given year - it's not much of a trouble to separate files between years, while this limitation permits to maintain the most universal 8.3 naming standard. Ideally a digital camera itself should do this job, but file naming seems to be of a little concern for camera designers. Program reads all not entirely digitally named *.JPG files within the CURRENT directory and renames those that have recorded date and time stamp (non-zero). Recorded date and time can be adjusted by a fixed value to handle the situation when pictures were taken in a time zone different from one where camera clock was set, or to correct error of the camera clock. Along with file renaming program appends records to the DESCRIPT.ION file providing initial description approximations (with optional global comment) that can be adjusted manually later. If it is preferable to use Long File Names instead of 8.3 names generated by RENPHOT, the simple DSC2REN program can be used to generate corresponding rename *.BAT out of the DESCRIPT.ION file (see link to it at the very end of RENPHOT page). RSS feed of latest updates to the site - http://www.davar.net/RSS.XML Updates to the site can be easily traced by corresponding colored dates attached to key items - brighter colors indicate more recent changes (see more about it at http://www.davar.net/ABOUT.HTM#Dates). |
