Bug ID: 440909 Summary: Import's "Auto-creation of Albums" using file modified date rather than date taken Product: digikam Version: 7.3.0 Platform: Microsoft Windows OS: Microsoft Windows Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Import-Albums Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: k...@chrisweis.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY When I import images, I expect album folders to be generated based upon when photos are taken, but they seem to only be using the data the image file was last modified (in my case, the date the image was copied from my iPhone to my OneDrive cloud storage). The file formats I'm able to recreate this issue are: heif (Apple iPhone) and NEF (Nikon Raw) STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open Digikam 2. Select Import > Add images 3. Navigate to a folder with photos (that contain EXIF data, including date captures) 4. Confirm "Date-based sub-albums" is enabled in the "Auto-creation of Albums" setting, with date format of Custom and "yyyy/yyyy-MM/yyyy-MM-dd" 4. Click Download 5. Note that the generated folders only use the file modified date, not the camera capture date in EXIF. OBSERVED RESULT (described above) EXPECTED RESULT (described above) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: Win 10 (19042.1165) ADDITIONAL INFORMATION -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
