Hi,

Thanks for all the answers.

For me chancing the date directly in the darktable database seems the
easiest. I'll have a look into that soon and let you know how I did it.

The reason for the missing metadata is that I do not have the RAWs but
only exports from Lightroom done without metadata...

Regards
Tobias

Hello,

It may happen that the date is not available, for instance because the
camera was reset and the date / time not adjusted.
Or because they were taken long ago, with a camera that did not embed
the information.
Or... ther may be so many reasons. :-(
It is possible to do almost everything from within the database - I
once succeeded in modifying the path to a series of photos.
You could also use exiv2 (or even xnvew, if I am not wrong) to embed
the information into the files (make a backup of them before, because
this may alter your files in a way that further versions of dt are not
able to read thepm anymore).

Hope it will help,

J.-Luc
