![]() (You might have to repeat this procedure twice to avoid duplicates. To solve this problem, start PictureRetitle again for the second folder, reset the file numbering and start the renaming process again: the names of the pictures in the second folder will now be: 2009_09_01_0001 through 2009_09_01_0020. Because of the two different dates you will end up with 2 folders. Initially this will not exactly go the way you want it to go because of the way the program handles sequencing numbers. Suppose you started renaming a total of 40 pictures in one folder, taken on 2 different dates. Why almost the perfect solution: there is one thing you have to consider but it can be easily overcome. In the renaming process you can exactly define the format you want to (2009_11_-09-0001). When you start moving/renaming pictures, folders will be created according to the rules you have defined in Setup Picture Storage Management. For instance: create folders in the format Year/Date taken. Here you will let the program know what the rules are for creating folders for the selection of pictures to be stored in. Its likely that the 'Date Created' is the filesystem timestamp FileCreateDate. Which is why you have to look at the exiftool output to figure out what you want to copy from. Its a Windows property of the file which can be filled from half a dozen separate tags (see this post ). In the program, you go to Setup Picture Storage Management. The problem is that 'Date Taken' is not an actual tag name. The Pro version is really about renaming individual pictures in a very sophisticated way but as I understand, that is not what you are looking for. Since almost all the batch features come for free, I do not even think you will have to spend a dime. The program comes in two versions, Basic (free) and Pro (pay). (Yes, I am the author of this program so I might be out of line here, but I sincerely think that you will be able to exactly achieve what you want). The almost perfect solution is called PictureRetitle. posted by teg4rvn to Computers & Internet (10 answers total) 7 users marked this as a favorite I tried to do this with IrfanView batch processing but it only will renumber in this fashion if you only select one date (e.g., today's 50 photos alone will be renamed 0001 to 0050, but if I try to add yesterday's 50 photos to the batch, the whole batch will be numbered from 1 to 100 instead of two sets from 1 to 50)Īny ideas? freeware option? I'm demo-ing Adobe Lightroom but haven't figured out if it could be done in there. So when you have multiple mp3 files in various folders all over your hard drive, it'll neatly organize them in your "My Music" folder (if that is what you want).Īlso, I'd like to rename all my folders to the day the photos were taken (e.g., 2009_12_28) and then have the individual photos in each folder have the same prefix and then be numbers sequentially (e.g., 2009_12_28_0001). MediaMonkey lets you auto-organize by moving specific file types to a specific folder. ![]() I'm looking for a program with a feature somewhat akin to the way MediaMonkey handles music.
