Exif:DateTimeOriginal - check if seconds exist and set seconds value

[Uwe]

Hello,
because of a bug in a program the Exif tag DateTimeOriginal was set like: 2018:03:11 10:28:
That means the seconds value is missing and I get problems with programs like GeoSetter.
I would like to find all files with this wrong situation by an ExifTool command and then set the seconds value to "00".
Is there anybody who can help?
Regards, Uwe

Hi Uwe,

This simple command should do the trick:

Code Select Expand

exiftool "-DateTimeOriginal<DateTimeOriginal" FILESorDIRS

Hi Hayo,
thanks a lot - it works. I didn't expect that simple way to write back the tag.
Have a nice weekend,
Uwe
