Note: Currently this project is in hiatus. Original exiftool can do all the renaming and more. If a feature not supported by the Exiftool is required, this project will be resurrected again.
Video Renamer is a tool to rename video files according to their meta data.
Simple. I have saved many TED Talks, and wants them to be named neatly. I still download them, hence wanted a better way to rename, since they have nice, full meta data embedded.
Also, because XKCD!
- The tool requires
exiftoolto read actual meta data. For Debian and its derivatives,exiftoolcan be installed by installing thelibimage-exiftool-perlpackage. - The code uses and bundles a recent (generally latest) version of smarnach's
pyexiftoolwrapper. See the source here. - The code is written to run with
python3and will not work on Python 2.x environments.
