ExifTool & Thumbnail

Hi!

Lately I started playing around with EXIF / IPTC / XMP etc.
Now with XNViewMP 0.35Beta I did create thumbnails for some JPG's - then I extracted them with ExifTool :
exiftool -b -r ThumbnailImage images -w _thumb.jpg
Now for one thing XNView tells me "Exiftool => Warning : Skipped unknown 113 Byte header",
and for another thing : the extracted *.jpg can't be displayed in browser.
Will try to attach a screenshot of the ExifTool-Info :

Any suggestions? ( -: roland :- )

Could you send me the extracted thumbnail & original file?

The problem is solved now. Was a matter of using the ExifTool-commands.
This Batch-File works properly :

Code: Select all

REM Extract Thumbnails from DIR original to DIR small
ExifTool.exe -b -ThumbnailImage original -w small/%%f.%%e
REM Copy FILES from DIR original without all Metatags to DIR large
ExifTool.exe -all= original -o large/%%f.%%e
REM Embed Thumbnails from DIR small in FILES from DIR large, output to DIR images 
ExifTool.exe "-ThumbnailImage<=small/%%f.%%e" large -o images/
REM Extract ThumbnailImage from FILES in DIR images to DIR thumbs
ExifTool.exe -b -ThumbnailImage images -w thumbs/%%f.%%e
pause
