i_view32.exe D:\images\before\*.jpg /resize=(100,90) /aspectratio /resample /jpgq=100 /convert=D:\images\after\pic$X##.jpg

i would take all pictures (*.jpg) from the folder "before" then i would resize this, convert and rename to folder "after" in this folder it sould look like pic1 pic2 pic3 asa...

Your English is fine. The conversion and naming...ach! I think we have a command line bug. The consecutive naming works fine through the batch dialog, but multiple naming with the command line is tricky. I have struggled with this off and on.

What happens is that IF all the files are processed, they overwrite one another until the last one sits there smiling as 01.jpg or whatever. Name patterns other than $X can work all right, the numbers can be added to the existing file name. But that's not what we want

I tried some crazy variations - it has been fun, or at least interesting.

Hy all,

i have no idea why the $X variable works not correct, ore how you can declare there (also the complete help ore docu-file bring no answer).
but here is an .bat script from derniwi.

it works wonderful

@echo off

set /a picnumber=1
set sourcepath=D:\pics\images
set destinationpath=D:\pics\thumbs
set destinationname=pic
set filetype=jpg

set iview="d:\Program Files\IrfanView\i_view32.exe"

for /f "delims=" %%a in ('dir /b /on "%sourcepath%\*.%filetype%"') do call :dissipate  "%destinationpath%\%%a"
goto end

:dissipate 
set number=%picnumber%
set number=%number:~-4%
call :convert %1 "%destinationpath%\%destinationname%_%number%.%filetype%"
set /a picnumber+=1
goto :eof

:convert
%iview% %1 /resize=(100,90) /aspectratio /resample /jpgq=100 /convert=%2
goto :eof

:end

it takes all pictures from "D:\pics\images" convert and rename this in pic1, pic2, pic3 asa... to "D:\pics\thumbs"
