Encoded Date/Time Transfer : Adjust file timestamps in batch mode from Windows to match the metadata information of encoded or tagged files with this simple application
Timestamps can be modified in Windows as files are transferred or modified. Specifically designed for videos, the Encoded Date/Time Transfer application makes it possible to change the date and the time of media files to make file system tags match the container metadata information.
Process entire folders but not before experimenting with the app
One major plus of Encoded Date/Time Transfer is that is works in batch mode. In other words, it can process the content of an entire folder and create an output for every compatible video file.It will take a while before you understand what each option does, although everything is supposed to be simple. Nevertheless, in the lack of proper documentation, all that's left for you to do is to experiment with the application and discover what each ticked button does.
One-window interface to bundle all the settings
All the settings are located within the one-window interface, probably in the attempt to make the application easy to use. You can select the parameters to modify, starting with the date of creation and last modification. This way, you can make the system flags match the metadata tags that were previously altered due to various reasons.Moreover, the application comes with a manual mode that you can use to set custom dates for the encoded or created dates. Should you choose this method, there are dedicated fields for time intervals from years down to seconds.Aside from dates, the Encoded Date/Time Transfer application can also make modifications to the audio and video languages. Optionally, you can configure it to rename files while processing the source folder.
Discover how everything works on your own
Encoded Date/Time Transfer might come in handy to users who record videos using a camera and want to preserve the metadata information unaltered, but its main drawback is that it offers no guidance to explain all the options and how the application should be used. On the bright side, its processing speed is satisfactory, and all its actions are logged for future reference.
