sort image by date

[famille chaume]

Hi All


just wanted to know if there is away to sort our pictures by creation
date in albums. I found a sort by date, but it seems to be the date of
the modification of the file, and not the creation date.

Any ideas or suggestions ?


thanks

That's strange, mine seem to have always been sorted by creation date.

This depend when image have been populated in database. The time stamp of image is recorded in database to be able to perform searches.

Due to bug fixes, the right timestamp from metadata (there are more than 10 places where to get this info in Exif/makernotes/Iptc/Xmp), the date value stored can change of course.

This can be also different depending of camera model.

To resume the date extraction is a complex process.

What is the image format?

The sort order is by the creation date for JPEGs, DNG etc.

It is the modification date for mp4 and some unsupported by exi2  formats though.
