Title: Read folder with umlaut or japanese help
Post by: joe shimamura on September 06, 2017, 12:05:38 PM
exiftool.exe -T -n -p $GPSLatitude;$GPSLongitude;${filepath;s/\//\\/g} -ext jpg -r "C:\City" > "C:\out.txt"

If the folder name is Zürich or 土湯温泉辰巳屋山荘里の湯, exiftool doesn't read the files inside this folder, how can I read it? Thx

I've never been able to figure out how to deal with non-Latin1 filenames, so I can't be of much help, but you can check FAQ 10 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q10), FAQ 18 (https://exiftool.org/faq.html#Q18), and the docs on WINDOWS UNICODE FILE NAMES (https://exiftool.org/exiftool_pod.html#WINDOWS-UNICODE-FILE-NAMES).

But the short answer is try adding -charset filename=utf8 and see if that helps.

Thx but doesn't works.

-charset filename=
UTF8(cp65001, UTF‑8)   
Latin   (cp1252, Latin1)   
Latin2(cp1250)
-charset Latin
