Reading EXIF info from JPEG

Hi all,

I wonder, if anybody here has any source code or component, which can
read EXIF informations from JPEG pictures. Or some good, easy to
understood, description of JPEG files. I didn't find anything useful on
web yet.

Thanks very much for any help.

This is not source wanted newsgroup. As far as C is concerned, jpegs
are just binary files.

To find a description of these files, or most any other, go to:

http://www.wotsit.org

That's not a C question, but a file format (or algorithm) question. Once
you know how a JPEG file looks, it should not be much of a problem. But
have you seen <http://www.wotsit.org/>? They have full specs for the
JPEG format, and some information on EXIF, as well.

Does anyone know about a free API to insert textual data (like EXIF) into JPEG's and/or TIFF's? I've looked around but haven't found anything worth using. Most of the things I've found are, naturally, tools for extracting info from omages but I want to insert data... Regards Peter

I'm not sure whether I am approaching this correctly? I'm trying to get the focal length from exif info stored in an image. The Visual studio help says it is stored in "An array of two Byte objects that represent a rational number". Yet there are eight bytes in the info? shown below. 89 00 00 00 0A 00 00 00

Hi everyone, I'm trying to write up a simple image stamper application that stamps the Exif date information from the jpegs that I've taken from my digital camera and saves the new file with the date stamped on the lower right part of the picture. (I'm not an advanced programmer so my code may not be 100% efficient - sorry, I'm still learning) Everything works fine until the saving part. I've been able to read the file into a...

Does anybody have a pointer to a Python library/utility that will extract the chrominance and luminance quantization tables from JPG images? I have been using the _getexif method from PIL, which works fine, but doesn't extract the quantization data. I am a bit fuzzy on the terminology, but the quantization data seems to be JPEG data rather than EXIF data. One utility that extracts the quantization tables is JPEGsnoop -- there is a...

Folks, Short and sweet - does anyone know of a plug in or something I can use to read an AAC files encoding type (AAC, eAAC, eAAC+), bitrate, duration etc? I can handle WMA, MP3 and WAV, but to finish my testing (using FitNesse) I need to be able to handle AAC, and the WMF SDK doesnt support it. TIA (couldnt resist one last acronym!)

I am working on a program the reads the user comment field of a jpg file. When I read it in using GetPropertyItem to get the property and saving it to a variable with item=Encoding.UTF8.GetString(PropItem.Value).Trim() I get a string that looks like \0\0\0\0\0\0my text here. Is there a way for me to strip all of the \0s from the string? Thanks, Tim

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
