Cool Camera Syncing BAT

[Neodudeman]

Hi Everyone! I just recently got a new camera over the holidays, and a 2gig card to go with it!

Then I thought: It's going to be a pain organizing that many pictures!

So I decided to create a bat file to do the job for me!

It worked So Well, I decided to share it with the rest of you! =D

I know it's such a simple BAT file, and half of you could probably make a better version within 5 minutes or reading this post, but I still wanted to share it anyway =Þ. Props to Sidewinder for his %date% variable code for the folder creation.

Code: [Select]

@ECHO OFF
for /f "tokens=2-4 delims=/ " %%i in ("%date%") do (
      set mm=%%i
      set dd=%%j
      set yy=%%k
      )
set today=%yy%_%mm%_%dd%

md "C:\Documents and Settings\Neo\My Documents\My
Pictures\XMAS Camera\%today%\"

MOVE "DCIM\100CAMEA\*.*" "C:\Documents and Settings\Neo\My
Documents\My Pictures\XMAS Camera\%today%\

Happy New Year Everyone! =D

Nicely done. Good work.

That's pretty cool.
However, remember that the folder name will change between cameras, as different manufacturers use different names for photos and different folder names/structures.
W00t, this is my first post in the DOS section!
Lol.

Hey, could someone help me out with my batch file?

I just found out that by moving All the pictures from the camera, it resets the IMAGXXXX number. Is there a way that I could, after moving the file to My Pictures, re-copy Only the Last file back?

There are two types of files. Video and Picture.

They both have the same naming system. IMAGXXXX, where XXXX is the number of that file. I.E. IMAG0001.JPG is the first file made, and IMAG0012.JPG is a file made later. The Video and Picture files have the different endings of ASF, and JPG.

Anything that I can do?
