Title: another feature request
Post by: Winfried on September 08, 2009, 08:54:10 PM
I like the idea of copying the images to two or more different places.
Up to now I solved this by using a bibble batch-queue (see attached image).
Therefore I miss some features in FlashPipe:
- generating directorys/paths based on Exif-date-information. (i.e. yyyy\mm\dd)
- renaming features for the files (have a look at Qimage flash card copy)
- for files without exif-data (buddy-files?) there should be some buddy-file handling and "other" for i.e. movies

What is a "buddy-file?"  EXIF is embedded in the jpg header when it exists.

Are you talking about an XMP?

.xmp is an example.
.bib (bibble) is another
.qrs (qimage)

thumbnails from the first canon digital rebel ( D300 in Germany)

If I understand you correctly, there is already the ability to handle "other" files.
See Edit-Settings, Miscellaneous at the bottom of the Window. You can choose to copy to a separate folder or not.

Yes I know, but I think of the quite flexible buddy-file configuration I have in the database IMatch.

My main feature request was:
- generating the path from exif-fields
- filerenaming
