Code Select

EXIFCMD="filename"
EXIFDIR="/var/vols/Pics"
exiftool -d %Y/week%W/%A \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -r "$EXIFDIR"

After running the above command, I notice a lot of AAE files are untouched.

Reading the forum, I learnt that those AAE files are called sidecard files.  How can I adjust the above exiftool to handle sidecard files as well?

Writable file extensions:
  360 3G2 3GP 3GP2 3GPP AAX AI AIT APNG ARQ ARW AVIF CIFF CR2 CR3 CRM CRW CS1
  DCP DNG DR4 DVB EPS EPS2 EPS3 EPSF ERF EXIF EXV F4A F4B F4P F4V FFF FLIF GIF

  RAW RW2 RWL SR2 SRW THM TIF TIFF TTT VRD WDP X3F XMP

AAE is not a writable file type (see the the command above), so this is FAQ 16.

...where DIR is the name of a directory/folder containing the images.  On Mac/Linux/PowerShell, use single quotes (') instead of double quotes (") around arguments containing a dollar sign ($).

I find this topic:
https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=9423.msg48747#msg48747

After studying, I tried using this command:

Code Select

EXIFCMD="testname"
EXIFDIR="."
exiftool -v -ext aae -d %YWeek%W \
\
   -tagsfromfile %d%f.png \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}${IPTCDigest;$_=""}/Whatsapp/Whatsapp-%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/${make;}${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${datetimeoriginal}/${make;}_${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
\
   -tagsfromfile %d%f.jpg \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}${IPTCDigest;$_=""}/Whatsapp/Whatsapp-%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/${make;}${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${datetimeoriginal}/${make;}_${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
\
   -tagsfromfile %d%f.mov \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}${IPTCDigest;$_=""}/Whatsapp/Whatsapp-%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/${make;}${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${datetimeoriginal}/${make;}_${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
\
-r "$EXIFDIR"


I got this result:

    3 directories scanned
    0 image files updated
   20 image files unchanged


It seems those AAE files got renamed.

My next question is:  how to rename those AAE  and the media files (png, mov, jpg, mp4, etc) in one pass ?

And, how can the above command be simplified?

I have find this also:
https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=10824.msg57887#msg57887

So I am testing with this command now:

Code Select

EXIFCMD="testname"
EXIFDIR="."
exiftool -fileorder filename -ext+ aae -v -d %YWeek%W \
\
   -tagsfromfile %d%f.png \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}${IPTCDigest;$_=""}/Whatsapp/Whatsapp-%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/${make;}${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${datetimeoriginal}/${make;}_${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
\
   -tagsfromfile %d%f.jpg \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}${IPTCDigest;$_=""}/Whatsapp/Whatsapp-%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/${make;}${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \

   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${FileModifyDate}${IPTCDigest;$_=""}/Whatsapp/Whatsapp-%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/%f%-c.%le' \
   -$EXIFCMD'<${createdate}/${make;}${model;}/%f%-c.%le' \
