EXIF date taken without leading zero messes date up

Post by negg »

My new mobile phone can take photos (*sigh*) well not so good, but it can. The date taken is displayed as from 1901 in XnView, obviously because its stored in this format in the image:

2007:12:5:21:59

No leading 0 at the day, see?

Is this a valid format and a bug in XN, or is the format wrong and I have to tell this to the manufacturer of the phone?

Don't know if the format is correct, but xnview must support it. Could you send me a sample?

The EXIF date is not correct, no leading 0, and no space between date & time!!!
