ExifTool is a platform-independent Perl library and command-line application that can read, write and edit metadata in a wide variety of files. ExifTool supports many different metadata formats, including EXIF, GPS, IPTC, XMP, JFIF, GeoTIFF, ICC Profile, Photoshop IRB, FlashPix, AFCP and ID3, as well as the maker notes of many digital cameras.
ExifTool 11.64 is not the latest version of ExifTool available, but it still offers many features and benefits for users who need to manipulate metadata. Some of the features of ExifTool 11.64 are:
ExifTool 11.64 is compatible with Windows, Mac and Unix operating systems. It can be installed as a standalone application or as a Perl module. It can be downloaded from various sources, such as Chocolatey Software, ExifTool Ancient History, or CNET Download.
ExifTool 11.64 is a powerful tool for editing metadata that can help users manage their files more efficiently and effectively. It is recommended for users who need to work with metadata in various formats and files.
ExifTool 11.64 is not only a tool for viewing and editing metadata, but also a tool for performing various tasks with files based on their metadata. ExifTool can be used to copy, rename, delete, geotag, and catalog files using powerful command-line options. Here are some examples of how to use ExifTool 11.64 for these purposes:
ExifTool can copy files from one location to another based on their metadata values. For example, to copy all JPG files in the current directory that have a flash mode of 1 (flash fired) to a subdirectory named "flash", you can use this command:
exiftool -if '$FlashMode eq 1' -o flash/%f.%e *.jpgThis command uses the -if option to filter files by their FlashMode tag value, and the -o option to specify the output directory and file name. The %f and %e are format codes that represent the original file name and extension.
ExifTool can rename files based on their metadata values. For example, to rename all JPG files in the current directory with the format "YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS.jpg", where the date and time are taken from the DateTimeOriginal tag, you can use this command:
exiftool '-filenameThis command uses the -filename option to set the new file name, and the < symbol to indicate that the value is taken from another tag. The -d option specifies the date/time format using strftime codes.
ExifTool can delete files based on their metadata values. For example, to delete all JPG files in the current directory that have a rating of 1 or lower, you can use this command:
exiftool -if '$Rating le 1' -delete_original *.jpgThis command uses the -if option to filter files by their Rating tag value, and the -delete_original option to delete the original files after processing. Be careful with this option, as there is no undo.
