It is +associated with Rapid Photo Downloader. + +It uses exiv2 to extract photo metadata,and ExifTool to extract video metadata. + +To work, this program requires that the scanned photos and videos not be in the Linux +kernel's disk cache. To ensure this, the program provides option, specified by the command line +argument '--clear', to instruct the kernel to sync and then drop clean caches, as well as +reclaimable slab objects like dentries and inodes. This is a non-destructive operation and will +not free any dirty objects.
