Description Martin Eriksson 2009-01-21 20:36:11 UTC

Version:            (using KDE 4.1.3)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

digiKam believes every .AVI has the same creation-date (and time) and that's not the case.
Maybe that's what messing things up.
Nikon D90.
See the attachments.

I also would like to have the oldest photo like 091115-000001.NEF and the newer one's a higher number, doing anything wrong or should i add that as a wish?

Martin, 

There is no way for the moment to extract date from video files using Exiv2 library. In Camera GUI, we use file date provided by camera.

Do you use Gphoto2 driver or UMS mode ?

With current implementation from git master (next 2.1.0), i fixed a bug when date is taken from a file which cannot be parsed by Exiv2 (video file for ex).

The bug is simple : no date is assigned !

At least, now, file system date is used as well. video file must be ordered.

Can you test with current implementation ?

Thanks in advance

For me this file can be closed with digiKam 2.1.0. Reopen if necessary...

Fixed with next 6.0.0 release which integrate a new video metadata parser based
on FFMPEg instead Exiv2. Video date extraction work as expected.
