compact flash with Created Date wrong

Description:
In "Import Window", with only Compact Flash Card "Created date" in thumbnails is wrong but the "Metadata date" is correct.

Software ver: digiKam v.5.6.-01-win64
OS: Microsoft
OS-version: Win7-64bit.

Reproducibility: always

Steps:
1) A Compact Flash card in a Card Readers plug in and I go on Import menu.
2) "Import Window" shows all the thumbnails with the "Created date: 31/12/1979 23:00" but in the "Metadata properties" the dates is correct.

A) I  tested this issue with other CF (Compact Flash)card also of the other Camera but the "Created date" always is 31/12/1979 23:00".
B) If I connect a SD card the "Creates date" is in sync with metadata.


PS: I tested this also in a old version for windows "digiKam-installer-4.12.0-win32" with the same issue.

Have you the option under setup-> cameras-> behavior-> "Use file metadata (makes connection slower)" enabled?

Hi Maik,
thanks for your fast reply.

I have found the option in...
Menu-> Settings-> Configure digiKam-> Cameras-> Behavior Tab-> 
"Use file metadata (makes connection slower)" disabled.

I just changed that option to Enabled and now the "Created Date" is correct.
Great!

I'm so sorry for open a new (inexistent) bug but I havent't found nothing in the web/forum for this question.

Thanks so much Maik.
