While looking into the latest craze of geoblogging -- gps-tagging pictures, I found a nice util called exiftool that can edit exif tags on jpeg files. This should allow import of descriptions from an external source to exif tags quite easily. Then, we just need mythgallery to support the exif tag display ;) http://www.sno.phy.queensu.ca/~phil/exiftool/ It can do the following: exiftool -Comment='This is a new comment' dst.jpg Set comment in file (replaces any existing comment). By the way, if you're interested in geoblogging, check out: http://www.makezine.com/blog/archive/2005/07/how_to_gps_tag.html http://www.geobloggers.com/ -Ross _______________________________________________ mythtv-dev mailing list [email protected] http://mythtv.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/mythtv-dev
