Filename Extraction: Help Please

[din4225]

Hi guys,

I'm a newbie in using exiftool.
Basically, i use -Filename to extract filenames of images in a folder.
Recently, however, other than the file name, the directory of the file also show up.

Can anyone help me on what to do?

Thanks..

I might be able to help if you show me the command line that you use.

i used this command line

J:\Steve>exiftool -Filename J:\Steve\Survey_unique_Fish_per_Transect\1Compiled_unique>crap.txt

then i got this kind of result, but not exactly this one

======== G:/Steve/Survey_unique_Fish_per_Transect/1Compiled_unique/-13Virgin_Transect 1_ (25)_Wrasse_Argus_Halichoeres argus.JPG
File Name                       : -13Virgin_Transect 1_ (25)_Wrasse_Argus_Halichoeres argus.JPG

I've attached a file output that is similar. I've run exiftool before and it works fine but now it won't work like before.

Please help.

Thanks

I'm just guessing here because I still don't know what you are talking about (exactly how did it work before?), but do you want to remove the lines beginning with "====="?  If so, add the -q option.

Hi,

Thanks. It work well.
Is it possible to also remove the "File Name                      :" portion in the output file?
here is the example
File Name                       : Panglit A_Outside_Transect x (73).JPG

By the way, is it possible to extract file name from all subfolders in a folder? using a single command
