I know that this is not a solution, but maybe this can help to some of you.
I found a script to set the modified date using the EXIF data from videos and
pics.
http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/89264/change-created-date-from-exif-data
I made some changes to the script (the original one didn't work for me).
First install this package: libimage-exiftool-perl
sudo apt install libimage-exiftool-perl
Then create a script with this code (don't forget to set executable
permissions):
#!/bin/sh
for i in /path/to/folder/with/pics/*; do
SPEC=`exiftool -t -S -d "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S" -CreateDate "$i"`
echo $SPEC
echo "$i:$DATE"
touch -d "$SPEC" "$i"
done
This will change all the modified dates from all files on
/path/to/folder/with/pics/ with the one on the EXIF metadata
information.
This is not a workaround, thi is just a fix for some kind of files.
