Ability to remove an EXIF tag (album, title, etc)

Open jmathai opened this issue 9 years ago • 2 comments

There should be a way to remove a tag that you've added or was already on a photo. This should include all supported tags (location, title, album, etc).

Unsure whether to use #107, this issue or a new issue to discuss this but I can see the finish line with regards to organising my images and now my mind is drifting to cleaning up file names

While I can use a tool like https://github.com/laurent22/massren/issues/36 to bulk manually do this I would prefer if elodie could handle this because any file names I update myself will get overrode next time I process with elodie

We have control of folder path structure but no control of the file name structure; IMO the latter being the least destructive approach (i.e. leaving Exif intact)

This would be my ideal file name:

yyyy-mm-dd_hh-mm-ss-hash.extension
// 2018-09-08_19-05-42-qb7z6trifnsis2w.jpg

If you agree, how do we get there and what does the hash represent?

Yours hopefully

What does the hash represent?

Hash could be generated off the file name with a random alphanumeric string appended to prevent sub-second file clashes

Yours hopefully
