How hard is it to get data out of the file information meta? I'd love a tool I could point at an image (or directory of images) and it would spit out a bbcode bulleted list of all the EXIF data attached to a photo. I think it might come in handy in the Creative Convention forum as well There's a bunch of sample pics with EXIF embedded here to download - if you right-click them and look at Properties>Summary>Advanced tab (in XP) you can see all the stored data. They have different bits of info, some have stuff the others don't, but they all follow the EXIF schema*[PDF] where you can find all the codes and their meanings for the various tags. Simple app: Input: Dir/photos/me.jpg, holiday.jpg, xmas.jpg Output: code:
Input as above, but a checkbox for the ability to filter the output to only really useful info - Name, Date/Time, Camera Make/Model, EXIF Image Width, EXIF Image Height, Exposure time, F Number, ISO Speed, Shutter Speed, Aperture, Exposure Bias, Metering Mode, Flash, Lens. Super extra bonus feature: Look for the GPS IFD within the EXIF tag, if present pull out GPSLatitudeRef & GPSLongitudeRef, parse a Google Maps URL out of them, post it at the bottom of the bullet list. code:

I have what I think is a pretty simple request. I am tired of waiting for my external hard drives to spin up after a period of inactivity. I'm not concerned about the longevity of my disks, I just want to be able to browse them at a whim without waiting for that multi-second "whirrrrRRRRRRR click" cycle as they spin up. Shouldn't it be possible to write a program that just copies a tiny file to the root directory of each user-specified drive once every <x> minutes and then deletes it, to keep the disks active? Maybe it could even be done with a batch file.

I think you can probably do away with the X and Y resolution fields, doesn't look like they hold anything important. I think if you change Form1 to something like EXIF2Forums, hide any fields that are empty, and stick a [sub}{/sub] tag around each list to keep the length down, it'll be good to go!

This is probably the most odd request ever, but how can i delete every other line in a word document? I have a lot of .docs that are very long (200 pages) that are manually double spaced. I need something that will basically do 'down arrow, delete, downarrow, delete' to eliminate the un-needed space from these documents.

They usually end up slowing each other down to the point where a system is unusable for the first few minutes. I'd like a program that would keep track of the shortcuts, and launch them at a particular time, so that their launch is staggered over an adjustable period of time. http://www.snapfiles.com/get/startdelay.html

Oben posted:That triples the filesize I think Focal Length and Exposure Compensation are the last two important bits of meta that most all files seem to save out. Stick them in and call it V.1 <edit> Looking at this file with EXIF4Forums gives the F-Number as 2, but it's 2.6 looking at windows properties; is the decimal being rounded off? It happens on other shots I have taken with a decimal'd f-stop. Also, I think every individual photo list needs a sublist tag open and close, so it's easier to paste waffleimage image links before each list, rather than them going into one long list. <edit edit> Tried the first version, drag/drop was far too much to ask, I thought...

balistic posted:I have what I think is a pretty simple request. wait, what? something on your computer is *telling* the drives to spin down. so you want a program to write to the drive over and over to counter-act the other program that would be telling them to shut down? isnt there something you could check to see your system defaulted to "Shut down this device to save power" or "turn off after XX minutes of inactivity" we have some systems at work that become inaccessible over the network after so many minutes, which made update scans and audits impossible. the solution was just to into Device Manager and uncheck "Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power" for the network adapter. besides the LAN device, there are similar options for the USB on my system, and power management lets me select "Never" as a shut down period for hard drives.

This, go into Control Panel>Power Options, there's a drop-down menu labeled 'Turn off harddisks'. The last option is 'Never', this is a much better option than making your harddrive write constantly.

hey guys. In the name of winning a years supply of free coffee, I request an app for all nz goons to capitalise on. [url=https://ssl.ebits.co.nz/Laffare/Competition/CompDetail.aspx?ID=952[here][/url] is a form to fill for entry into a competition. These are the conditions. ompetition Terms & Conditions BACK TO PREVIOUS PAGE > 1. You must be a New Zealand resident to enter 2. Only one entry per email address 3. Entries must be received by midnight of the day the competition closes 4. The competition will be drawn the day after the closing date 5. The winner will be notified within one working day of the prize draw 6. If the winner does not respond within four working days the prize will be re-drawn 7. The judge’s decision is final and no correspondence will be entered into 8. Caffe L’affare reserve the right to amend, suspend or terminate this competition without notice at any time 9. Prizes are non-transferable, non-exchangeable and non-redeemable for cash 10. Caffe L’affare shall not be liable in any way for any loss or damage or personal injury suffered or sustained in connection with any competition 11. Caffe L'affare staff and family of Caffe L'affare staff are not eligible to enter 12. By entering, you consent to receive Caffe L’affare updates 13. By entering, you consent to having your name published if you win the competition 14. By entering, you accept these terms and conditions Note the bold. Now, I figure then, I am allowed to enter as many times as I can, provided I use a different email address each time. I need an app that when run, uses something like trashmail.net to fabricate ten to twenty thousand email addresses, and enters each one into the draw, using the name specified in the App. The easiest way I can see to do this is to have it generate a random email address, enter this into the form along with predefined responses for the other fields, and a function to allow for reiteration x number of times. This comes from an old Val Kilmer movie geeks, where a guy in a basement enters a competition to the point of excess, ensuring he wins over half the prizes, as the competition does not state limited to one entry per person. Have at it guys. May an NZ goon win a years free coffee.

Hey, I'd like to solve one of my problems with my sound card through the miracle of a tiny custom app! Here's what I want it to do: -Output "blank" sound forever. I don't want a hiss or anything like that, but I just want my sound card's output to be constantly on. -Run completely in the background (just as a process), or at the very least run in the tray. I want to forget that it's there. -Have an obvious name. I have some process running in the background called xxtxsdw.exe or whatever, I'll probably end up stopping it a few months down the road in paranoia. Please just make the executable an obvious name, like "sound.exe" or "sndout.exe". This is to solve a problem with optical audio. The problem is that there is no signal sent when there is no audio, so there is about a half-second delay when it clicks on when audio is sent, with the result that I miss the first half-second of audio on any sound. I'm running Vista x64, if that matters for how you want to code this. Thanks a bunch! http://www.tinyappz.com/wiki/Request:1184000208

Cool Matty posted:I have a funky request. I don't know if this qualifies for "tiny" but hell it's worth a shot: If you're still interested, I've got around to posting my tray media player on SourceForge. http://sourceforge.net/projects/traymediaplay/ Worth noting that it has a few problems, and I'm not sure if the ShoutCast support even works anymore (I didn't change it, it just seemed to break). Also if you pause it it'll eventually consume all your RAM and crash, so that needs fixed. If anyone has the notion to tweak it, beware. It was written 5 years ago with no particular intention of supporting ShoutCast or indeed CDs and the primary motivation was "I hate WinAMP".

Thanks for the quick turn-around! edit: I've used your program to satisfy my needs! I just turned the volume of that program down to 0 in my Windows Vista volume mixer (it has individual sliders for each program), and it remembers it even on exit. If you go back in and make the program with a silent track, though...you could be helping tons of people. An easy way to get a silent .wav file is to open Audacity, go to the Generate menu and select Silence..., and then put in the length of time you want for a silent .wav file.

I'd like a Tiny App that will go through the data for uTorrent 1.6.1 and remove any instances of the domain oink.me.uk, but not oink.cd. Also, if it is possible to change the oink.me.uk to oink.cd, that would be great. This is due to OiNK's recent domain name change. I snatched all of my torrents with the snatches page and DownThemAll (Firefox extension), and some have both, some have oink.me.uk and some have just oink.cd.
