Question;
The "Details view" (Column "Exif Date") is empty, but there are other metadata date fields available above.
* Which metadata information is used to obtain the date listed in the "Exif Date" column in the data view ?

Thank you.

ok, currently only EXIF date are shown, not XMP

Thank you Pierre.

May I ask which EXIF tag will always be used, there are more than 1 ?
For example, using another Sony Raw Image file...

$ exiftool -time:all -a -G0:1 -s DSC00333.ARW

Result;

Code: Select all

[EXIF:IFD1]     ModifyDate                      : 2016:06:12 18:35:14

Which of the exif dates will be used ?

Thank you Pierre.

Also...

If there are Multiple EXIF dates, available, will XnViewMP cycle through them until it finds one ?
I think XnViewMP uses 'DateTimeOriginal', but I'm not 100 percent sure.

Code: Select all

[EXIF:IFD0]     ModifyDate                      : 2016:06:12 18:35:14
[EXIF:ExifIFD]  DateTimeOriginal                : 2016:06:12 18:35:14
[EXIF:ExifIFD]  CreateDate                      : 2016:06:12 18:35:14
[EXIF:IFD1]     ModifyDate                      : 2016:06:12 18:35:14

Thank you for your assistance.

[Katamara]

I'll repost in the correct forum.

Cheers.

Sorry, Katamara, I've been asleep at the wheel. As requested, I've now moved the topic to the “General Support” section of the MP forum.

[Katamara]

Thank you for moving this post to the correct forum.

Continuing...
If there are Multiple EXIF dates available in an image,
will XnViewMP cycle through them until it finds one...,
or does XnViewMP use 'DateTimeOriginal' ?

Best regards
