Windows 10: Windows 10 not reading / dsiplaying file dates correctly.

I have a question that I hope someone in the can answer.
I use Lightroom / Photoshop as many photographers do, I suppose.

Since upgrading to Windows 10, I am having trouble with Windows 10 Explorer recognizing dates on images correctly.

I had a bunch imported to other day that it labeled 12/31/1969.

I am pretty sure that was not right since I was only 13 that year and the digital concept was still WAY below the horizon!

I can change the capture date in photo editing but Windows 10 explorer still does not display it correctly.

Anyone else noticed an issue with Windows 10 explorer recognizing and displaying capture/created dates right? ... or have a fix?
Any help would be appreciated,





:)

 

FLAC tag/metadata reading in WMP on Windows 10

With Windows 10 comes FLAC support (finally!), but I've noticed that when I load FLAC music into the Windows Media Player library, all of the songs show as having an "unknown year" as well as the Contributing Artist section appearing blank.

All my files are correctly tag (used MP3tag which supports many audio formats). From a bit of reading on the internet it seems to be caused by WMP not correctly reading the tagging information of the FLAC files. When trying to retrieve the year of a song,
the player tries to read from the YEAR tag of the FLAC file, but FLAC files DON'T use YEAR as a tag, but instead they use the DATE tag, so the player is trying to read something that doesn't exist in the file and I'm assuming that's the same problem with the
CONTRIBUTING ARTISTS tag as well.

This seems to be an oversight by the developers who must've assumed FLAC files use all of the same tags as other audio formats. Does anyone know of a solution for this in order to get the media player to read correctly?

 

Photos not showing dates correctly

Hello SGB_1999,

Thanks for posting to the forum of Windows Phone.



Check if they are sorted correctly on OneDrive, then on the pone go to Settings > Date and time and set to manual.

After this perform a soft reset by pressing Power button + Volume down button until the phone vibrates and restarts.

Once you have done this, I would advise you to take new photos and see if they get sorted in the right way.

Regards,

 

It is a known issue with Lightroom and all software that is used to manipulate photos. It is basically taking a no date in the Exif part of the file, which somehow got stripped when you uploaded the pictures from your camera to your computer.

This goes back to the days of Unix to save space on the storage. It is a default if no creation date is embedded in the file.
