Title: JRiver 32 not using "Date Taken" from IPhone HEIC pictures
Post by: Matt B on May 15, 2024, 05:14:04 pm

Maybe a silly question but I searched for an answer a number of ways and can't find a resolution. When I copy over pictures from my IPhone to Windows 11 it appears JRiver is using the Last Modified Date instead of Date Taken. Nowhere in the tags in JRiver can I even see the "Date Taken" tag - yet Windows 11 and the Microsoft Photos App clearly show this field and use it. This is very annoying as I have separate directories for different sources (each camera is a directory) and then want to use the Image Dates view to merge all the photos from different cameras together into a coherent timeline. Seems obvious that the date the picture is taken is clearly how to most people would want to view their photos so surprised I'm not seeing this tag. BTW, the photos off the IPhone are in the HEIC format.

Any guidance you can provide would be appreciated.

Hi,

I can confirm this. The wrong date is used. Manually editing the date tag and the update library from tags doesn't work either. The date tag gets overwritten back to last modified. Please have a look at this.
