Uwe Posted May 10, 2015 Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Hello, the value of the seconds of the DateTime Original = 00, e.g. Date/Time Original 2015:05:02 13:11:00 Then I entered a keyword and a collecion tag and saved the changes. This is the result: Date/Time Original 2015:05:02 13:11: Tested with a DNG file. You got a download link with a video and the image file.

Regards, Uwe Uwe: The same thing happens to JPG and TIF files also. It seems to me that the problem occurs when Daminion writes a time/date stamp to Exif:ModifyDate. As long as Exif:ModifyDate has an entry, I can't get the final "00" to be written. I have tried using exiftool and the ExifToolGUI tool to write this field. When the Exif:ModifyDate field is emptied, I can then write the final "00" back. If I use the ExifToolGUI tool to write a date/time stamp to the Exif:ModifyDate field, I don't seem to have a problem with the final "00" being removed. Hope that makes sense.

Uwe Posted May 10, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 10, 2015 Hello, if that happens, 1. enter "01" in the seconds field in the tag Creation DateTime in the Properties Panel 2. Save 3. enter "00" in the seconds field in the tag Creation DateTime in the Properties Panel 4. Save Daminion doesn't have a problem with the missing seconds data but Geosetter doesn't work without a full DateTime Original data.

fhahn Posted February 23, 2016 Report Share Posted February 23, 2016 I have plenty of *.jpg files with the ending "00" being truncated if any are needed. I am still using the current released version of Daminion, not one of the test versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murat Posted April 8, 2016 Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Can't reproduce it at first attempt. Could you please send me a sample file to refresh my memory. Also is a time that ends with 00 should be entered via Daminion's Properties panel or by a third party tool like ExitTool? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uwe Posted April 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2016 Hi Murat, I'll sent 2 files to you by FTP to the folder "DateTimeOriginal". The original Cr2 file and the converted DNG file. Please check it with these files. The Import Settings are: Regards, Uwe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhahn Posted April 10, 2016 Report Share Posted April 10, 2016 I have a lot of files from scans of negatives. I used exiftool to add the DateTimeOriginal and CreateDate fields. I stamped a lot of the files with an approximate time and date. For example 1985:06:01 12:00:00 (June 01, 1985). What I have seen get truncated after Daminion modifies the file are the DateTimeOriginal and CreateDate fields. Once I edit and add metadata to a file, the ending 00 gets truncated. These fields should look like this: 1985:06:01 12:00:00 but look like this: 1985:06:01 12:00: One thing I have noticed is that as long as Exif:ModifyDate has a time stamp, you can't add back the ending seconds (00). Once this field is empty, you can. Another software program that I use to look at and modify these fields is ExifToolGui. It is a front end to exiftool.

odog502 Posted June 29, 2016 Report Share Posted June 29, 2016 Hi, just wanted to add myself as someone interested in seeing this get fixed. I posted this issue on a different thread not realizing this thread already existed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uwe Posted August 10, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 Hello, any news regarding this issue? It's really a problem because e.g. Geosetter doesn't work without an accurate DateTimeOriginal metadata. Regards, Uwe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhahn Posted August 10, 2016 Report Share Posted August 10, 2016 I know it is a workaround but I typically add the GPS coordinates with Geosetter first before I import the files into Daminion. Frank Hahn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Barrett Posted September 26, 2016 Report Share Posted September 26, 2016 I have a similar problem that may have the same root cause.

Uwe Posted May 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 Hello, this bug is still there in build 1765. Regards, Uwe Update: I made a test with a scanned TIF file 1. after the scan there is no DateTime Original in the metadata of the file 2. Import by Rescan folders - still no DateTime Original in the metadata of the file but in the Properties Panel is shown the DateTime of the import 3. Enter Creation DateTime 12:00:00 in the Properties Panel and a Title tag, e.g. "test" -> DateTime Original in the metadata of the file is ok: 12:00:00 4. remove the item from catalog and delete the file from folder 5. Repeat step 2 5. Enter Creation DateTime 12:00:00 in the Properties Panel, a Title tag, e.g. "test" AND Keyword tags, e.g. "original", "scanner" -> DateTime Original in the metadata of the file is not ok: 12:00: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Barrett Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 So it's almost 3 years to the day since this bug was reported. May we ask when it is going to be fixed please? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhahn Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 There use to be information on one of the Daminion web pages about bugs being fixed within a few days or something to that affect. I'm not holding my breath on this one. Frank Hahn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Barrett Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 +1 When can we expect this to be fixed please? It's a tiny bug, but creates problems orders of magnitude greater. Because of this problem, Synology Moments cannot sort the files correctly, and uses date scanned instead of Date Time Original Three years seems an excessive wait for a simple fix Paul 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daria Kotilainen Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Hi guys, My apologies for such tremendous delay! I will ask the guys is this is possible to fix it in the upcoming 5.9 version Kind regards, Daria Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Barrett Posted May 28, 2018 Report Share Posted May 28, 2018 Hi guys, My apologies for such tremendous delay! I will ask the guys is this is possible to fix it in the upcoming 5.9 version Kind regards, Daria That's great news. Look forward to that. A supplementary question arises. Once we know that the issue has been solved in all new date handling, how will we find and repair the broken ones please? Or will it just be a case of writing all tags to file for all images in the library? I'd like a script that could find all files with MM or SS = null. Could exiftool do that?
