XnView Software

I think I have found the problem.
My photos are stored on my NAS and I access them via Wi-Fi.
That is what is causing the delay.

When I copy the files locally I have no delay either.

I select the photos and check the corresponding box in the category bar.
Attached is an example photo.

Here my settings.

What is also striking: XNView MP takes an extremely long time to start: about 60 seconds.

yes, I have to wait while writing about 20-30 seconds.....

I tag ten jpg images with the same tag.
In total there are probably 200 images.

Hallo,

wenn ich mehrere Fotos gleichzeitig tagge, muss ich immer warten, bis die Tags in die Datei geschrieben sind.
Gibt es die Möglichkeit alle Tags zu setzen und die Tags dann erst ins Bild zu schreiben.

Lieber am Ende einmal lange Rechenzeit als mehrere Kurze.

Danke für eure Hilfe,
Tommes

Hello,

the photos of my smartphone have no EXIF-DateTaken.

I want to run a batch that:
-process files from "c:/photo"
-fetch the date from filename and write it into EXIF-DateTaken
-rename file with "filename<CreateDate"
-move the file to "c:/photo/%Y/%m/%Y%m%d_%H%M%S%%-c.%%le"

I have phrases for ...

This man is a genius :shock: . Phil Harvey is the creator of ExifTool.
I processed many filenames formats containing dates with this simple parameter: -k "-AllDates<filename" -overwrite_original
In most cases, I get a warning, but the work is well done
Exif dates and file dates are updated with ...

Hello,

I hope someone can help me.
I have found nothing for my problem in the forum.

I have many photos in different subfolders.
Some of them have no "Date taken" Tag.

First question: Can I find these photos through a filter?
When I have found them: Can I set the Date Taken-Tag from the filename?

Thank you, it worked!

My pictures are in subfolders.
When I open a subfolder, the number behind the individual categories is updated.
Is there a way to update all categories without opening all sub-folders individually?

Here the same problem.
Do you have an solution now?
