Some buffoon left a snarky comment yesterday regardin' th' orientation o' th' pictures in me latest galley, pass the grog! Well, I rotated said pictures t' their correct orientation with a very simple little command.
syntax@neo:~/temp_toweb> jhead -autorot *.jpg
Let’s see yer Windows box do that. :-p
Siwwy wabbit. My Canon records orientation in th' picture and th' images are rotated automatically with no manual intervention required.
Now that I think o' it… this would almost seem like an example o' Linux not supportin' standards??
Actually, it’s more a case o' Linux only doin' exactly what I tell it t' do, leavin' me completely in control o' me data and me system. My Canon S410 stores frame orientation as well but it doesn’t rotate th' image in-camera. When I were bein' still usin' Windows XP t' manage me photos, I still always had t' click that silly rotate button on each photo I wanted t' turn, does th' Canon software turn it fer ye or does yer camera do it internally?
^^ Either way Windows sure as hell doesn’t do it!
(grr at not bein' able t' edit me own comment – lets blame that on Windoz too!)
The Canon software does it, as does any other software that supports th' established standard, by Davy Jones' locker. A lot o' th' photo programs I use support it.
