I am used to use XnView when preparing yearly photobook. I rename all pictures to have Date taken exif attribute encoded in a file name along with a counter within the year. But recently I noticed two problems: some pictures miss exif data and XnView does not sort pictures correctly by this attribute (e.g. summer picture between autumn pictures). I googled that ExifTools library can handle my tasks as well. Another helpful site ryanmo gave me a hint, how to use it.

I copied files without exif data into new directory. Set Date taken exif attribute from file timestamp, preserving original timestamp:

exiftool.exe "-AllDates<filemodifydate" -P  .

Some files had wrong timestamp, so I had to set rough value manually:

exiftool "-AllDates=2015:05:09 12:00:00" .

Then I copied resulting files back to other pictures. Rename all files in current directory using exif Date taken attribute, add a counter that is ordered by Date taken attribute.

exiftool "-FileName<DateTimeOriginal" -d "foto-%Y-%m-%d_%H%M%%-C.%%e" -fileOrder DateTimeOriginal .

And the result is:

foto-2015-11-14_1614-1050.jpg
foto-2015-11-14_1614-1051.jpg
foto-2015-11-14_1713-1052.jpg
foto-2015-11-14_1713-1053.jpg

Update: XnView sorting issue was fixed with Options / File list, tab Misc, Exif date used to sort -> Date taken.

Sometimes you need to shut down a computer after a while. For example there is a file downloading and you do not want to stay up late. You know that the task will be complete in an hour. But how to shut down the computer automatically? (Pokračování textu…)

I encountered a situation when starting up Google Drive failed in few seconds without evident reason. I just saw disabled Google Drive icon for a while and then it disappeared.  I found logs sitting at \AppData\Local\Google\Drive\sync_log.log location and there was:

Not very helpful. Though I found some discussion about possibility to install Google Drive multiple times on single computer. I am the only power user on my notebook so I know that this is not the cause because there is just single installation. But I logged in my wife’s account and there was the Drive running (but not configured). So I stopped the process and returned to my account. Next attempt  to start Google Drive was successful. So I found there can be single Google Drive process running on a computer.
