Hi,

for sorting the exported JPGs by year and month, I want to include the
timestamp, when the picture was taken, into the filename on export.

The templates "$(EXIF_YEAR)_$(EXIF_MONTH)_$(EXIF_DAY)" from
http://www.darktable.org/usermanual/ch02s03s12.html.php seemed to be
right for this.
This works fine for pictures (RAW, JPG) that were taken with digital
cameras.

But my DT-archive includes 40 years of work since I scanned all my old
slides with a NIKON Coolscan 4000 ED.

I found, that I have to set for example
 $ exiv2 -M"set Exif.Image.DateTimeOriginal '1978-09-01 00:00:00'" \
   dia_f037_b0[1-9].jpg
BEFORE I import the scanned JPGs into DT.

Not "Exif.Image.DateTime" but only "Exif.Image.DateTimeOriginal" sets
the right timestamp in the database-column "images.datetime_taken" on
IMPORT.

But for this scanned pictures the templates "$(EXIF_YEAR)" etc. on
EXPORT do not work.
It seems "import" and "export" use different exif-time-values.


How can I use the values from the database-column
"images.datetime_taken" for the filename on export?
