Last post by StarGeek - Today at 02:20:24 PMQuote from: nquental on May 17, 2024, 09:35:41 PMIt seems "exiftool -api geolocation" is only applicable to a specific file each time?
No, you can mix as many directories and individual files on the command line as you want, limited only top the max length of the command line (a bit over 8,000 characters on Windows, something like 100k characters on Linux/Mac).
For example
exiftool -ISO C:\pictures\Wedding D:\MorePictures\SingleFile.jpg E:\Another\Picture\Directory\
Add the -r (-recurse) option to recurse into subdirectories. For recursion, see also Common Mistake #2.

Last post by StarGeek - Today at 01:29:46 PMBeing inexperienced in a subject is not dumb.
It's taken me a literal decade to get to know exiftool as well as I do, and there are still things I don't know or have enough experience in to provide answers for.

Code Select

-ExposureTime -LensID as the standard string. How can I do that and have JSON output as result? Is that possible? #7
Newbies / Copy photos into folders based...
Last post by AmericanLoco - Today at 11:49:33 AMHi,
I have 200 photos I took at an event. The photos contain multiple people. I tagged the individuals in each photo using FastPhotoTagger (which actually uses exiftool).
Now, I'd like to send each person at this event a copy of every photo that contains them.
So I have my source directory with all of the photos in it. Each photo has the people tagged as a "Keyword" with the names separated with semicolons. I also have another directory full of empty folders, each folder named with the same names used in the tags.
So I'd like to copy my source images, into those named folders, based on the keywords.
For example, Photo001 might have the Keywords "Ronald; Wendy; Denny; Tim". I would like to copy Photo001 into my separate destination folders named "Ronald", "Wendy", "Denny" and "Tim". I want to do this to all ~200 photos in my source directory.

Last post by StarGeek - Today at 12:35:27 AMQuote from: alex_eichler on May 17, 2024, 04:59:12 AMPerhaps it is in the "Unknown RICO" part.
Yes, using the -v3 (-verbose3) option, you can see it's part of that tag. But is is mostly nulls after the GCM_TAG

Newbies / Geolocation of all files in a ...
Last post by nquental - May 17, 2024, 09:35:41 PMHello!
Is it possible to write geolocation data (country, city) for all files at one in a folder and subfolders? It seems "exiftool -api geolocation" is only applicable to a specific file each time?
Thanks in advance,
Nuno
