Dear All

We are trying to use EXIF datetime tag (1:302) to auto-populate the DetDate0 field in the Multimedia module when attaching JPEGs. However, the format of the raw EXIF field data (YYYY:MM:DD HH:MM:DD) seems to be giving EMu a headache. Has anyone successfully used embedded metadata dates (whether EXIF or otherwise) to populate this field?

Best

1. Whoops! Should have written "EXIF datetime tag (1:306)" - the problem is not being caused by an incorrect Registry setting.

2. Current system data format is English-style dd/mm/yyyyy

Hi JP,

We've run into the same problem. If EMu date input format (which is a system setting) is set to recognize dd/mm/yy, it won't recognize date that's in other formats. Our photographers have been entering date data into the Writer/Editor field in Bridge (IPTC 122) in order for it to map properly into the Date field in MM. If there's a proper way to do this, I would love to know.
