AddItemWizard, Visual Studio 2005 version.
For the 2003 version see codeproject where you also find all information on what this software is for and how it can be used.
Rename it with :
XFP 2.0.Release.zip
Xfp is short for eXtendible File Processor and performs it's main work through plugins.
With the, in this zip-file present plugins, you can :
- Select files through wildcards, dates and filters ( which are also plugins ).
- Filenames and file extensions can be renamed separately.
- Rename files by chaining simple base operations.
- Rename MP3 files by usage of their mp3 meta-tags values.
- Rename files containing Exif meta-tags on the basis of these tag values.
- Preview the renaming results before actually renaming the files.
- Undo renaming operations.
- Modify file attributes.
- Modify file dates.
- Copy or move files to another map.
- Create folders containing MP3 files that are selected by matching their corresponding meta-tags found in an excell-csv file.
- Reorganise MP3 files by matching their corresponding meta-tags
- Dump MP3 meta tag values to a text file.
- Process images : Invert, desaturate; Modify contrast, brightness, colour- and gammacomponents.
All these operations are plugins, there's even a filter plugin with which you can find your desired mp3 file on your ipod !
The following MP3 tag versions are supported :
- IDV1.0
- IDV1.1
- IDV2
- IDV2.2
- IDV2.3
- IDV2.4
In Xfp you can also define background operations to be executed on files that are created in monitored folders.
If you find a renaming tool that has a renaming feature that this one doesn't have, just send me an e-mail : erlend@erroba.be.
XFP contains extensive configuration possibilities and documentation.
A table of contents of all available plugins with a link to their documentation ( if present ) is generated automatically by xfp.
For the .NET developers :
Xfp is extensible through plugins, xfp gives you the functionality to generate a 'Xfp-plugin solution' and to add 'AddItemWizard2005 templates' to the wizard configuration if the wizard is installed ( see above ), all this to minimize your effort to develop new plugins and thus add new functionalities.
If you have developed new functionalities that you wish to be included in this download, please send your source code to erlend@erroba.be with subject 'XFP plugins' and a short but clear explanation of their functionlities and/or inner workings.
Plugins are only accepted after a torough test, if your code is not neat or badly structured, i will not even waste my time on testing them. If tests prove to be positive, your plugins will be included in this download and the plugin documentation will indentify you as the author of that plugin with your name and possible url.
Installations instructions :
Extract the zip file to a new folder.
Be sure not to forget that you need to install the .NET 2.0 platform (see above), in window-vista the .NET 2.0 platform is already present by default.
Execute the file 'Xfp.exe'.
For bugs that are related to Xfp itself or plugins written by me, send a clear description of the problem and if possible a way to reproduce the problem to erlend@erroba.be.
For bugs related to other plugins try to contact the author through his url or e-mail address supplied, if the bugs is serious send me a mail aswell and the plugin will be removed from this download.
