Title: Regex for extention and combine metta data
Post by: Dev388 on February 16, 2016, 01:28:24 PM

Hi, this is my first post,
I'm not familiar with CMD so I try and begin with GUI..
I try to write metta data

1. How to remove/replace the extention of image. I try to use filename for the keyword,

-EXIF:XPKeywords<$filename
and the result is name of image.jpg. I just want the file name of image

2. It's posibe to combine my text and filename of image. for eg this is what i try

-EXIF: -sep ", " -XPKeyword="one, two, three" -XPKeywords<$filename"
and the result is just filename with extention. I want one,teo,tree, name of image file

thanks and regard ::)

The sample config file (https://exiftool.org/config.html) included with the full ExifTool distribution (config_files/example.config) contains a BaseName tag that will do what you want. XPKeywords is not a List-type tag, so you write a simple string like this to have multiple keywords:

exiftool "-exif:xpkeywords<one, two, three, ${basename}" ...

You could also do it without the config file using the advanced formatting feature with a command something like this:

exiftool "-exif:xpkeywords<one, two, three, ${filename;s/\..*//}" ...

But you mention the GUI. These are commands for the command line. I don't know how to do this in the GUI.
