Project bin should sort based on exif create date instead.
Camera is a GH5M2, produces MOV files with date and timecode metadata. kdenlive does not respect the date recorded, and instead reads the date from file modified field, when it should get the "Tagged date" field from mediainfo. kdenlive does not respect the timecode either, timecode of the imported file starts from 00:00 instead of the time of day. shotcut video editor can read the date and timecode perfectly fine.
Created attachment 174655 [details] output of mediainfo when passed the file in question
It appears there is a mechanism to obtain these information from the file using mediainfo however it did not work for me. https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/kdenlive/-/blob/master/src/bin/projectclip.cpp?ref_type=heads#L930
