I'm trying to change the date of the following text file from 1970 to 2011 (I have 500 text files to rename). Can Ubuntu do this natively or will I have to speak to the "Script Guru's"?

I'm trying to create a script that will look for a "filename" under /etc/, date stamp the file and copy it to /var/www/upload
View 5 Replies View RelatedBrasero is a great application in general, but one thing has always annoyed me: When I rip a disc to an image file, it is always called "brasero.iso" by default. Is there some way I can configure Brasero to automatically use the disc's volume label as the *.iso filename? I'm tired of having to type a filename each time, or else go back later, figure out what it's an image of, and rename it in Nautilus.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a bunch of OGG files with TAGs I changed. Now I want to have the same changes done to the filename.I know I can do this easily with ie. EasyTAG but that makes all my songs get reindexed in Rhythmbox. This wouldn't be a problem hadn't I rated much of them already.s there a way to change the filename from within Rhythmbox, or with an external method, where the ratings are left intact. I need it to be done automatically, manually changing Rhythmbox' database file takes too much time with +2500 songs.

How can I set a pattern that will output a filename equal to the original filename? E.g.
something.mp3 → something.ogg
And why isn't this implemented in SoundConverter?
PS: {Filename} doesn't work.

The code runs fine and Ubuntu loads also from the ISO stored in the C: drive of my system.
The problem is when Ubuntu loads it changes my clock time. I have set the timezone to Indian Standard Time. Since it is live CD it should not make any changes in the system however, it does change the Data/Time of my system.
I set my location, but Debian displays DATE in some messed format. I would expect such neat OS to recognize all those local settings based on my location, but that's not the case. It seems that Debian follows locale settings by set language (which is en_us in my case, as I guess in majority uses) or this format is default in any case
I would like to set date/time to DD.MM.YY. hh:mm:ss, and programs that display date data to follow this setting. Simply put, in Windows there is Control Panel and you set location, then OS uses some regional settings, like currency, separators, date/time format.
In the past, I just edited the /usr/share/gnome-shell/js/ui/dateMenu.js file to alter the date and time format. Today when I tried that, it crashed GNOME Shell and wouldn't let it start..

I'm having an US American date format that drives me totally nuts, like MM/DD/YY. Today is 1/13/15. It seems to appear across the system (GNOME 3), from Skype to IceDove to Nautilus. So my hope is there is a central instance where I can change this. I would prefer to have 13-Jan-15 or 13-Jan-2015 or at the very least 13/01/2015, i.e. in some order consistent with my European brain.

I am using Ubuntu 9.10 and have been using digikam to get my photos and videos in order. A lot of the creation dates are messed up, but I have been using the "adjust time and date" tool in Digikam to ge the photos set to their correct creation date.
However, when I try to do that on a .mpg or .avi I get an error that reads "Unable to adjust metadata in ****.mpg" I've tried opening the videos in other programs, like avidemux and cinelerra, I even tried opening the properties section of the videos. I haven't been able to find a way to modify the creation date of videos.
Is there a way to change the creation date of videos on Ubuntu? I would prefer to use digikam, but at this point I'm open to anything. Do I need to download a plugin? A program? Use a command line command?
After installing Evolution, the date format for entering birthdays was MDY. I edited the preferences and see under contacts it was set to "Use locale default" (which it identifies correctly, but should therefore have been using DMY).
I changed the format to a preset item in the drop-down selection to force it to %d.%m.%y %H:%M:%S which didn't change the birthday field behaviour. Have done the same in Calendar and Tasks, still no change.
if/where you can change the date format for the Birthday field in contacts in Evolution?

View 2 Replies View RelatedAs a photographer I'm constantly taking photos and storing them in folders. Now occasionally I'm using two cameras (either for different settings or an assistant is also taking photos) which means that for one event I can have differently named images.Both cameras have the same time set (which always helps in Windows) but in Ubuntu when trying to sort my folder by date taken I can't.The options I'm given are to sort them: Manually, by Name, by Size, by Type, by Modification date and by Emblem.Now none of those are helpful to me once I've done a few edits to the images.So please if anyone knows, how do you organise a folder with images taken on different cameras by Date Taken rather than Date Edited?
