Title: File Size in Bytes
Post by: bornpilot on October 30, 2011, 08:07:32 PM
Greetings, I use exiftool with my macintosh for creating a podcast rss feeds. I recently upgraded to the newest version to use the csv option. Howerver, when I use the tool with the csv option to extract the filesize it's in human readble format such as 12MB. If I use the verbose option it displays the filesize in bytes however the verbose option does not seem to work with -csv to extract the filesize.

My, question what is the best way to get get the filesize in bytes as a csv format for mp3's?

You can either use the -n option, which will returns numerical values for all tags, or add a # to an individual tag name (ie. -filesize#) to do this for a single tag.
