| Summary | 0004157: EXTRACTOR_METATYPE_CREATION_TIME epoch used is 1904 | ||||
| Description | Some files appear to use 1904 as the epoch for EXTRACTOR_METATYPE_CREATION_TIME. In this case, the date is 66 years behind the correct date. The file tested was a 3gp file, with the video taken in 2013. I worked around this in my code by testing if the year was less than 1970 and adding 66 years if so. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Test various 3gp files until one is found that has a 1904 epoch. | ||||

Interesting. Are you able to share a file for testing? PM to christian@grothoff.org would suffice. |

I've tracked this one to a call to GStreamer, where GStreamer returns the time attribute as a GValue (GtkObject) and we call "gst_value_serialize" to get the string representation. At that time, (approx. gstreamer_extractor.c:1455) the year is wrong. So the bug is actually in gstreamer, not in libextractor... |

Setting to 'non-fixable', as this must be fixed in gstreamer. |
