Title: Write EXIF date/time from filenames?
Post by: yusheng on July 29, 2015, 04:33:23 AM

I have a bunch of JPGs with no EXIF and I want to write the date/time stamps to them from the filename.

All the filenames are in this format:

YYYYMMDDHHMMSS.jpg

example: 20120103230412.jpg

How can I use a single command to write all the EXIF tags to an entire directory?
