OrganizeMediaFiles.ps1

# ==============================================================================================
# Microsoft PowerShell Source File 
# 
# This script will organize photo and video files by renaming the file based on the date the
# file was created and moving them into folders based on the year and month. 
#
# JPG files contain EXIF data which has a DateTaken value. 
# Other media files have a MediaCreated date.  
#
# It will also append a sequenced number to the end of the file name if the name already exists to avoid name collisions. 
# The script will look in the SourceRootPath (recursing through all subdirectories) for any files matching
# the extensions in FileTypesToOrganize. It will rename the files and move them to folders under DestinationRootPath, e.g. :
#
# "SourceRootPath\\IMG_2011-02-09_21-41-47_680.jpg"
# Will be changed to:
# "DestinationRootPath\2011\201102\20110209_214147.jpg"
# Or if already exists:
# "DestinationRootPath\2011\201102\20110209_214147_1.jpg"
#
#
# The code for extracting the EXIF DateTaken is based on a script by Kim Oppalfens:
