Tobias, That means that the Media Gallery UI may need to be corrected/adjusted as the date displayed is indeed the "dcCreated" date and may therefore display erroneous dates if a media file is dropped into the inbox. Shall I file a jira ticket for that?
Regards, Edmore >>> Tobias Wunden <[email protected]> 3/8/2012 11:55 PM >>> Hi Edmore, as far as I remember the thinking with regards to dcCreated was that we just don't know the actual recording date, which may or may not be related to the date on which the file was dropped into the inbox. One solution may be to try and read the recording date from the movie itself during inpsection time. Media info for example displays an "Encoded date": Encoded date : UTC 2008-12-04 12:45:51 This to me seems to be much more accurate than taking the date where the file was dropped into the inbox. Would you agree?

Dates for recordings that are ingested via the inbox ( well those we have noted ) appear to have a date "n.a" displayed. This is attributed to the dcCreated field not being correctly populated. Is this a bug in the backend ? Should the "dcCreated" field be automatically populated when files are dropped into the inbox? or should the UI be changed to pick up the start date field i.e. the recording date, that appears to be present irrespective of the ingest process ? > > Regards, > > Edmore Moyo > UCT > > ### > > UNIVERSITY OF CAPE TOWN > > > This e-mail is subject to the UCT ICT policies and e-mail disclaimer published on our website at http://www.uct.ac.za/about/policies/emaildisclaimer/ or obtainable from +27 21 650 9111.
