Description Thomas Bach 2021-04-13 18:12:49 UTC
Have the problem, that many picture in one album has set the exif Date and Time to the same value. Will try to rename the picture with exif date and time withount a number.
So i try to change the exif date time as the following way:

Each picture should read the exisf date infos from the previous picture and change the exif date time with one second more. Means, that should be done recursiv.

At the moment, i found only the way to change all selected picures with one second more.

Did you tried the plugin named TimeAdjust available in "Item/Adjust Time & Date" from main menu ?

Yes, i tried this. But the problem is, that i cannot use the exif date from the first picture in a slection as base and then add 1 second differece to any other picture in the selection.

Lets try to explain:

I have 20 Pictures all with the exif date 21.10.1998 10:00:00

I will rename theses picture only with date.time.camermodell

i will set the frist picture in the selection to 10.10.1998 00:00:01

All other pictures should increase the seconds:

2.) 10.01.1998 00:00:02
3.) 10.01.1998 00:00:03
4.) 10.01.1998 00:00:04

....

The problem is, i have some pictures without a correct exif date. I could use by renaming a number field. But thats not a solution for me. I will change the exif dates and times for all pictures so i can rename only with date time

Sorry, cannot understand how it will be work.

If i have a list of files in the adjust Time & Date, set the frist picture to fixed time e.g. 00:00:00 and select also add 1 second, all pictures ar set to 00:00:01. What i need is that the first picture is set to 00:00:01, the second to 00:00:02 the third to 00:00:03 and so on.
