Title: Use EXIF Creation Date As File Modification and Created Date
Post by: ayanm00 on May 04, 2018, 04:40:28 AM
Hi,

I exported some videos from my Mac's Photos app, but they do not have the correct modification and created dates. If you import them back into the Photos app the dates are correct, and if you use an online EXIF reader, it shows the correct date also. How do I use the EXIF date as the file modification and created dates? The files are MOV and M4V, by the way.

Thanks in advance!

Try this:

exiftool "-filemodifydate<createdate" DIR
