Hi there, are there any plans to support reading exif data out

Yes - we have a ticket for this: http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/3093

I feel also vey concerned by this question as I planned to buy a new
camera and hesitated between Lumix LX5 (AVHCD/mts videos) and Canon
S95 (H264/mov videos). I wonder if I will be able to deals with
Shotwell the videos embeded by the Lumix camera... Do you have any
date (0.9 or 1.0) for AVHCD support in Shotwell??? Does it depends on
Shotwell or another library?
Shotwell reads date/time metadata from video files by itself. We'd like
to do that using GStreamer, but GStreamer can't handle all the necessary
formats yet (including AVHCD/MTS). (See
http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/2836 and the tickets it points to for more
details.) Even once GStreamer is able to read the metadata we need, we
still won't be able to use it until some time passes and new enough
versions of GStreamer make it into the major distributions.
So if we want to be able to read MTS date/times in the near future we
need to implement that in Shotwell itself. I think it's too late to
take this on for 0.9 since our feature freeze is this week. But I think
we should implement this for 0.10 since a number of users have reported
they are using this format. I've upped the priority on the associated
ticket ( http://trac.yorba.org/ticket/3093 ) to high.
