0.81 Date and Time Changing tool not working correctly

Post by Oliviander »

As I tried to update the EXIF Date <date take> using the file changing date - 6 hours
the tool didn't work correctly.
I used it on 200 files and it worked correctly until file number 146 while 147 to 200 remained unchanged.
But the tool ended corrctly and xnview kept working.#
But when i used the tool that way on even a larger number of files (around 1000) it crashed.
- I tried this a number opf times. This even is true for the tool in XNView classic (which might be the same).

Sorry false alarm!
I did some tests this evening, and I can say the tool is working fine
but it is
very very slow with RAW files (canon in my case)
it takes more than 1 sec per file to change the date.
So I assumed the program stopped working but it obviously was not the case.
It even worked with 1000 files - I just had to wait for 20 minutes.

Therefore it would be nice to have a feedback of XNVIew:
How many of the selected files are already processsed and %

In the meantime I was using the tool quite on some files.
I did other things on my Computer while waiting for the response of the tool.
Now I found a real bug:
While the tool is actively working and the popup-window is visible,
the program crashes when I accidently click anywhere in the main window.
The file in progress while crashing can be identified because
it gets the current time for the FILE change date.

@Oliviander: Could you please check with the current v0.84 and see whether your problem still occurs?
