Comments on: Tagging JPG photos using EXIF properties http://www.scaine.net/site/2010/01/jbrout/ Where confusion is mandatory Thu, 19 Jan 2012 15:21:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: scaine http://www.scaine.net/site/2010/01/jbrout/comment-page-1/#comment-93 scaine Sat, 04 Dec 2010 21:38:36 +0000 http://www.scaine.net/site/?p=34#comment-93 Glad it helped! It sounds like you might want to check out Phatch too. It can rename/copy/move files based on Exif information too - I think jBrout only does that on first-run, doesn't it? I'll have to update this article with instructions on how to install jBrout though. The lack of a PPA is still a bit annoying. Worth it though. Glad it helped!

You opened my eyes to jBrout! Until now I have been using jhead (command line tool) and ordinary moving/copying of files into folder structures to organize my photos. I have been considering exif-tagging for a while, but never knew where to start, now I know where to start: jBrout :) I have a naming scheme that I use with jhead: yyyy-mm-dd-HHMMSS and I was happy to learn that I can teach jBrout to use that same naming scheme. All that is needed is to edit ~/.jbrout/jbrout.conf and change the line normalizeNameFormat = p%Y%m%d_%H%M%S to normalizeNameFormat = %Y-%m-%d-%H%M%S Looking forward to working more with it :) I know this article is almost a year old, but better late than never :)
