Hello,

I would like to change the "created" timestamp on a batch of video files (mp4).

I want to replace the "Created" date of ‎04 ‎September ‎2020, ‏‎12:16:53 (todays time and date)
with the date that is stored in the EXIF data <ExifTool:DateTimeOriginal>

Is this possible?

Many thanks!

You want to change the exif or metadata...
I think this is not possible with Advanced Renamer bacause it's only possible to change filename.

A workaround is temporarily to add the date to the beginning of the filename and then to update the file timestamp, in a second batch.
