Many of you already know, but for those that don't, one of the biggest pains about digital cameras is organizing the hundreds or thousands of 103Z2987.jpg files into a meaningful file structure that allows you to find pictures when you need them.
A filename like 103Z2987.jpg doesn't tell me anything about that photo except that it came from my wife's camera because I set her camera to create 103Z... files. What I want in a filename is information that tells me when the picture was taken that will sort in chronological order no matter what I am looking at them with. I like a filename of the form YYYY-mm-DD-HHMMSS.jpg. For example:
2009-01-27-165238.jpg
I have to differ with this. File names cannot and should not contain metadata.
Yeah, I agree. Metadata belongs somewhere else - in the inode, the exif data, extended attributes etc.
And I suppose your mp3/ogg files are all named like astronomers name celestial bodies? ;) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
