1.7.2: Creation date/time is not read on Linux (EXT4)
Posted: Wed Aug 21, 2024 10:41 pm
XnView: MP 1.7.2 - 64 bit
OS: Arch Linux 64bit
Creation date/time field is empty for files that have one. On EXT4 filesystems (like mine) this is called a "Birth" date. I have verified my files have one using the stat command.
Effect: Creation date/time is not properly read on Linux
To reproduce:
1. Check metadata of image or view as Details on Linux
2. Creation date/time and File Created Date will be empty.
