CM Batch MMedia Date Changer at Mac App Store analyse

Have you been in a situation when you replaced the camera batteries and forgotten to change the camera clock to the current date and time or set the wrong date or time like when you wanted to take photos and videos in the new year and set it to the year before ? Happily taking the photos and when you go back and checked, all the dates and or time are wrong.

There are applications out there which let you batch change all the file dates to a single date time which would not make much sense. Moreover, those only change the creation and modification date but the Digitized Date and Time in the EXIF header remains unchanged. The EXIF Date is important when uploading to the web especially one of the many cloud based photo storage services.

This app supports JPEG,JPEG 2000, AVIF, HEIC, HEIF, HIF, PNG, TIFF, ARW and SR2 (Sony RAW), CR2 & CR3 (Canon RAW), DNG (Adobe RAW), MEF (Mamiya RAW), MRW (Minolta RAW), NEF (Nikon RAW), NRW (Nikon RAW), ORF (Olympus RAW), PEF (Pentax RAW), RAF (Fujifilm RAW), RW2 (Panasonic RAW), SRW (Samsung RAW), 3GP, 3G2, MP4, M4V and MOV formats. As the app uses the macOS System Level RAW Image Framework, do check if your camera is supported at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT210191 . If it is not supported, the app would attempt to use LibRAW Framework (https://www.libraw.org/supported-cameras)..

The Batch processing will let you perform the date change to one or more photos and videos at one go.

Beginning from v2.8.0, we included the powerful Date Rescue module. This fixes situation where you get either no file creation or modification dates either due to a faulty PRAM, the clock battery going flat or some system or app updates which may cause issues to the dates showing up as -- or to December 31st 1969 or some time in the distant future. Date Rescue is here to help. It can use either the EXIF Date, Current Date or a date of your choosing.

Note : File Date can only go back to 1904 due to the operating system restriction.

This application let you change the date and time different ways.

1) You can set all dates and times to be the same (if you want) or just change the date and leave the time as they are.

2) You can also use the Date Maths feature which lets you Add or Subtract Days, Months, Years, Hours and/or Minutes from the current photo dates. And Now you can use the Incremental Date Settings to generate incremental date and time.

3) You can sync all the dates to either the Creation, Modification or EXIF Date.

4) You can also change each photo and video date and time individually.

The choice is really yours to make depending on the situation.

CM Batch MMedia Date Changer (previously known as CM Batch JPEG Date Changer) requires a two-step process which firstly let you review the changes to the dates before applying them. So as not to make yet another boo boo which could ruin the day. Once you are happy with the changes, click the Change Now button and let the application do its magic.

The images will not be modified in any ways, it is only the file creation, modification and EXIF dates and times will be changed.

Now CM Batch MMedia Date Changer includes the option to backup your files.
