1.98.2 - Batch Rename EXIF Date sort bug

XnView 1.98.2en

In Batch Rename when you sort by EXIF Date, the first file is out of sequence.

In the example above K5__4303.PEF (Pentax K-5 raw file) is later then the other files below it. This is my second attempt. I'd already untagged K5_4304.PEF which was the original out-of-sequence file, then it moved to K5__4303.PEF.

Bug does not occur if you use EXIF Date (descending) order, but unfortunately you can't step by -1, so the renumbered files will be in the reverse order

Pierre, I've noticed something else about this bug: the mis-sorted files change position every time during the Batch Rename session when I reselect EXIF Date from the drop-down list of sort orders:

Initial opening:

1st EXIF Date selection:

2nd EXIF Date selection:

3rd EXIF Date selection:

The three PEF files used in this demo are available here:
