Conversion with subfolders

[Didi]

Is it possible to change the dpi of images which are diveded in several subfolders with only one command??
nconvert -quiet -out 100 -dpi JPEG target/*.jpg
I know the root directory but i didnt know the names of the subfolder in it. So I need an option like -r.

I'll add a -r option...

interesting, but this can be done with some scripts:

for exemple:
Create two files with Script with

*****************SCRIPT de lancement.bat *******************
Setlocal

set REPimages=C:\Sizer_img
set REPscripts=C:\Sizer
set REPnconvert=C:\Sizer\Nconvert-win

c:
cd /d %REPimages%

for /D %%R in (*.) do call %REPscripts%\Sizer_rep.bat "%%R"

Endlocal

*****************SCRIPT Sizer_rep.bat *******************
cd /d "%1"

nconvert ...... *.jpg ......
Echo répertoire "%1" traité

for /D %%R in (*.) do call %REPscripts%\Sizer_rep.bat "%%R"
cd ..

Hurray! That will make a difference to nconvert, since this is often needed.

When will the -r option be available?

I've just updated and browsed the command line options, but there's still no -r for recursing subdirs available.

I've added this to the Global Request & Suggestion list and will point Pierre to this feature request.

Temporary solution I use (WindowsXP) -
cmd file, from this thread - http://newsgroup.xnview.com/viewtopic.php?t=204

modified to look like this -

@for /R /D %%a in (*) do nconvert.exe <your_options_here> "%%a\*.*"

I added /D switch, it prevents running nconvert exe for each single file. Instead, it runs nconvert for each subdirectory (note the "\*.*" file mask at the end). Should be faster this way.


// EDIT
For me, previous sample didn't work when there were spaces in dir names.
Here's an update -

@for /R /D %%a in (*) do nconvert.exe <your_options_here> %%~sa\*.*

~s is a documented 'for' feature, it converts to short path

I have several folders (400) in this structure:

\stock\#item_id#\foto\preview

where #item_id# is variable

in the foto subfolder there is a jpg called something_1.jpg

i need to nconvert that jpg and save the result in his "preview" subfolder

Can someone help me with the script?

Thanks in advance!
