Olympus Movie File

Hi, hoping you wonderful people can help. It's been a while since I had a camera.. ever since I lost my Olympus EM10 Mark 1 - well it was casually stolen on a trip 2 years ago (another story) and I decided that I would only shoot with my mobile as penance for that. Recently with new Olympus sales, and itching for better quality images.. I couldn't pass up on $260USD EPL9.. and I still had some great primes that weren't stolen and kept in storage.



Anyway, was playing around to figure out the best way to store photos again, and came across this issue. When copying movie files.. and only movie files.. there is a media created date which is completely wrong to the actual date and time shot which is below in the date modified. The problem is that when I copy this file into Google Photos, it puts the media created date.. so when it sorts by time, it is in the wrong order. Now I can go into Google Photos and change this.. but I don't want to do this every single time, when the created date is the date that I want. Would anyone have any idea why this happens or how to change it?




Where does this come from? The date is actually from the future.. after I shot it in the morning!




This is the right date

I know not everyone here will have a pen epl, but is it the same on an omd? How do you do your workflow of pictures?

A guess, but perhaps this has something to do with a timezone setting issue somewhere along the way. Certainly 9:57 AM and 5:57 PM is a exact 8 hour difference, which potentially could be caused by something of this nature. Would you be living at a location which is GMT plus or minus 8?

Thanks.. I think you are on the right track. Not sure why it doesn't do this for images.. only movie files. I am in Singapore, so we are on +8 GMT. Will investigate further.

If I remember correctly, .mov files does not use the capture time stamp in the EXIF, but the creation time of such file on where you copied it to.

Might Google it and trust you could get some confirmation on this.

I shoot MP4 mostly nowadays, but IIRC(although I could be wrong?) certain software can rename the .mov file in batch by their capturing time stamp. Might try the free FastStone.
