[6]Rename photos and use Date-Taken and Camera Model as the new filename:

Code: Select all

{dt.format('yyyy-MM-dd HH∶mm∶ss')} [{camera.model}]
Image
Is there any way to append the newly created date based filename with a -1 or_2 or something similar if a duplicate is created?

Thanks for any assistance you can suggest.

1.
No, because in this case a "duplicate" is defined by your format so it can't be known in the format. You can use bindings such as {i} to add a running number though, or {crc32} to add a unique checksum for the file, or add milliseconds to make it more unique, or some identifying exif data, or keep some information from the original filename, etc.


2.
How did you take multiple photos within the same second on the same camera? Would adding milliseconds to the format resolve the issue? You could also take bits and pieces from the original filename (which presumably already has the numbers you want) to make the new filename unique.



EDIT:

Custom duplicate logic is possible, but tricky, so it wouldn't recommend it.

e.g. Get photo index per day:

Code: Select all

model.findAll{ it.d == d }.object.indexOf(object)

Very sorry to take a month to come back to you, thanks so much for your suggestions.

I opted to actually take some time and clean up the photo collection!! ended up using a little dupicate cleaner called dupeGuru and you don't care..!! anyway...

Now that I'm about to use filebot to sort them all out I come across a weird situation where - dt.format - pulls the modified date rather than the "Origin" "Date Taken"

Am I using the wrong option?

Please use the MediaInfo Inspector and copy & paste all the Image metadata so I can have a look at what's what.

e.g.

Code: Select all

Exif_IFD0_Date_Time	2012:05:11 13:04:27
Exif_SubIFD_Date_Time_Original	2012:05:11 13:04:27
Exif_SubIFD_Date_Time_Digitized	2012:05:11 13:04:27
AFAIK, FileBot derives the value for {dt} from Exif_IFD0_Date_Time.

For this example
Exif_IFD0_Date_Time 2011:04:25 09:35:55

The correct timestamp is these:
Exif_SubIFD_Date_Time_Original 2009:05:22 16:00:26
Exif_SubIFD_Date_Time_Digitized 2009:05:22 16:00:26

Now, my photo library has been moved, organised and re-saved, backed-up, restored lost and restored again, many times over the years, so if this is some quirk of that I apologise.

That is strange indeed. I suppose some photo editing application modified the exif data when modifying the image. I'm not an EXIF expert, but it feels wrong to me. Tools shouldn't modify EXIF metadata as if it was the Last-Modified file attribute.

If this is a common issue, then I'll see if it makes sense to change the default behaviour.

In the meanwhile, you can just pick that piece of information you want in your custom format:

Code: Select all

{exif.DateTimeOriginal}

Thanks for taking a look

just to confirm, in the expression should i set it as: {exif.DateTimeOriginal('yyyy-MM-dd HH∶mm∶ss')}

Re: Duplicate photos

You'd have to parse the String to a Date object, and then convert the Date object back to a String using your custom date format:

Code: Select all

Date.parse('yyyy:MM:dd HH:mm:ss', exif.DateTimeOriginal).format('yyyy-MM-dd HH∶mm∶ss')
