View Full Version : Feature request - use date taken instead of date file modified

I just discovered that Downloader Pro v1.7 uses the file modified date instead of the date when the photo has been taken from EXIF. It does this at least for the tokens %Y, %m and %D.

I got my new Nikon D200 next to my existing Nikon D100 and decided to rename the files into for example Nikon D100-1234.NEF which is then stored in a subfolder for example "20060131 Zoo visit". When I redo the files on my harddisk with Downloader Pro it takes the modified file dates (as I already did my post processing on these files).

So would be nice if tokens are added for date when the picture has been taken.

You can do this by selecting "Use image capture time for file timestamp" in DLPro's preferences under the General tab.

Ah, missed that option completely. Yep it works now as wanted.
