[Originally posted by thechad on 2008-03-03 03:49:05-08]I'm attempting to rename and move some MOV files created with my digital camera. This command in a .CMD (.BAT) file generates the following error for each file:
exiftool "-Directory<FileModifyDate" -d "C:\Folder\%%Y%%m%%d" "C:\Folder\SubFolder\*.mov"
Warning: Error creating 'C:/Folder1/YYYYMMDD/C:\Folder2\Folder3\YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.mov'
Essentially I'd like the files:
C:\Import Folder\P0001111.MOV
Renamed and moved to
C:\My Pictures\YYYYMMDD\YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.MOV
based on the file modified time.
Any assistance would be great.

although I haven't seen this before. Try using forward slashes instead:
exiftool "-Directory<FileModifyDate" -d C:/Folder/%%Y%%m%%d -ext mov C:/Folder/SubFolder
