Update image timestamp

[Eru Steiner]

Hello Digikam Users

I have an Album with more than 10 thousand images and now I noticed for
10 images the EXIF data regarding creation time is wrong. So I want to
shift it by -7 hours.

I didn't find a possibility to do that in digikam (but I'm quite sure
it's there somewhere...)

So I used exiftool on the commandline: exiftool -alldates-=7 ....jpg

And restarted digikam several times, but I now have a bit an
inconsistent behaviour:

- On the right hand side "Properties"-View I see:
- - File Properties "Date" is from today (which I think is correct since
I modified it),
- - but the Photographie Properties "Created" it still shows the old
date (not shifted by -7 hours)

- On the right hand side "Metadata"-View I see the correct dates (all 3
shown dates are correctly shifted by -7 hours)!

- Below the thumbnails it also shows the wrong (not -7 hours shifted) date.

How can I tell digikam it should update / refresh the EXIF data of this
10 images?

Regards
Eru

There is the timeadjust KIPI plugin which does just what need.

In your current situation, you need to tell digikam that it should update its
database information from the changed image metadata, this is intentionally
not done automatically.
Or just use the KIPI plugin to adjust only the digikam time stamp.
