Hi,

May I know how can I get the DateTimeOriginal from EXIF?

From the given example, I was only able to work up to this

Code:
                Dim formatReader As Codecs.IFormatReader
                formatReader = Codecs.FormatManager.CreateFormatReader(file)
                Dim exifData As Codecs.MetadataDictionary

                Select Case formatReader.MediaFormat
                    Case Codecs.FormatManager.JpegFormat
                        Dim jpegReader As Codecs.JpegReader
                        jpegReader = CType(formatReader, Codecs.JpegReader)
                        exifData = jpegReader.Exif

                    Case Codecs.FormatManager.PsdFormat
                        Dim psdReader As Codecs.PsdReader
                        psdReader = CType(formatReader, Codecs.PsdReader)
                        exifData = psdReader.Exif

                    Case Codecs.FormatManager.TiffFormat
                        Dim tiffReader As Codecs.TiffReader
                        tiffReader = CType(formatReader, Codecs.TiffReader)
                        exifData = tiffReader.Exif
                    Case Else
                        Exit Sub
                End Select

From the example given, seems like it's a loop. Just wondering is that possible for us to direct get the value and not go into the loop to match the keywords?

Thanks.

Hello,

Yes, of course. Here is the last line which you need:

Code:
MessageBox.Show( _         exifData.Item(Aurigma.GraphicsMill.Codecs.ExifDictionary.DateTimeOriginal))
