More on that SmugShot Metadata Mess

Bakerjd EXIF/Metadata, J, Photography, Programming, SmugMug, Software April 20, 2011August 23, 2020

A few days after posting a J script that fixes EXIF timestamps in SmugShot images SmugMug changed the filename assigned to downloaded SmugShot images.

Originally the layout was:

SmugMugID_smugshot_SmugShotID.jpg

This layout was inconsistent with the way SmugMug normally handles files. Default SmugMug behavior is to leave filenames unchanged.  This contrasts with other photo sites, (you know who you are), that rename your sacred files to suit their indexing schemes. A few days ago SmugMug corrected this discrepancy and downloaded SmugShot images reverted to their original format:

smugshot_SmugShotID.jpg

This fix broke smugshotexif see: my previous post. I have modified SmugShotFix.ijs to handle the current format and the older one.  I will keep tweaking this hack until SmugShot’s sloppy EXIF handling is corrected.
