I see.
Although, it might make sense to add the necessary work there.
I would love to help. I written some independent code for it, if you like i can send you. I learning C by my self, and this project is my target to learn with. So if you have time for mentorship, you are welcome. To use attached programm, compile it: gcc -ggdb -o walker whalker.c -I. Usage: ./walker /media/path_to_storage_with_pics Output looks like this: buf: ../samples/canon/DCIM/105CANON/IMG_0540.JPG, 0, 540 buf: ../samples/canon/DCIM/105CANON/SND_0540.WAV, 0, 540 tadaaaaa this is audio comment ... buf: ../samples/canon/DCIM/105CANON/IMG_0547.JPG, 0, 547 buf: ../samples/canon/DCIM/105CANON/STA_0548.JPG, 1, 548 buf: ../samples/canon/DCIM/105CANON/STB_0549.JPG, 1, 549 first part is path to the image. Second is tag number(0 - no tags, 1 - panorama, 2 - interval image). Third is image number... i use it to find audio comments. regards, Alexey
