| Dec 7, 2014 at 19:37 | comment | added | Steve Barnes | @nixda - there is an exe available - no python needed. | |
| Dec 7, 2014 at 19:03 | comment | added | nixda | Well, I just wanted to show a portable solution where no phyton installation is needed | |
| Dec 7, 2014 at 18:41 | comment | added | Steve Barnes | @nixda pyExifGUI is actively developed - last release was nearly a year ago but there have been 26 commits since. As far as I can find the only (re-)compression done by exiftool is for compressed metadata. | |

Instead of pyExifGUI I recommend ExifTool GUI. The GUI isn't actively developed anymore. But I think this doesn't matter so much because the underlying core program ExifTool IS maintained. It fits all your needs. But I cannot test if a image is re-compressed or not

But in the case of pyExifToolGUI there is an executable which means it is writte in python but you don't have to install python unless you wish to tweak and run from source. | |
| Dec 7, 2014 at 3:55 | comment | added | Amazon Dies In Darkness♦ | Thanks Steve. Before posting my question, I went through all the ExifTool GUI front-ends and discovered they all seemed to be abandon-ware. I skipped pyExifGUI due to the requirement to install a whole scripting environment just to use it. I would prefer not to have that bulk (and another thing to maintain). Regardless, I do thank you for posing this possibility. You mentioned that you have not heard of many problems with corrupt images. Was it ExifTool or pyExifGUI that was causing rare corruption? Can you provide links to the problems? | |
