Summary: digikam does not obtain date of origination from exif
metadata of video files
Product: digikam
Version: 4.12.0
Platform: unspecified
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: minor
Priority: NOR
Component: libkexiv2

For photographs, digikam obtains the date that the photo was taken from the
exif metadata of the image, and then falls back to using the creation date of
the file if exif metadata is unavailable.
Currently it does not do the same for videos, it just uses the file creation
date.
I suggest that it should scan the metadata of videos to obtain the creation
date.
The following exiv2 tags could be looked for:
Xmp.video.DateTimeOriginal
Xmp.video.DateUTC
Xmp.video.ModificationDate
Xmp.video.DateTimeDigitized
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
Add a video file to an album
See what date digikam has assigned to it
Actual Results:
Digikam uses the file creation date as reported by the operating system
Expected Results:
If there is a creation date recorded in the video file's metadata, digikam
should use that.
