Can you provide a sample file please.

[gitdarktable]

I've seen that in the generated .xmp the creation date is correct but darktable doesn't represent it.

On current master and linux can't reproduce. When inspecting via exiv2 correct metadata are present.

[gitdarktable]

I test stable v2.6.2 and .dng and .tif datetime is good.

In v2.7 for Windows and currently v3.0.0rc0 fail.

[gitdarktable]

I tests currently v3.0.0rc1 fail

[gitdarktable]

I tests currently v3.0.0rc2 fail

Solved:

both in Win10 and Win7 Datetime fail if regional settings language in OS is different to English (UK).

It is not a complete solution but it works, will have an easy solution (I guess).

Hi, partial days are correct, but not all, in latest v3.0.0.

[github-actions]

This issue did not get any activity in the past 30 days and will be closed in 7 days if no update occurs. Please check if the master branch has fixed it since then.

This issue seems to have been fixed since. So I close it. @gitdarktable: feel free to reopen with new information if it's still there on darktable 3.4. Note too that 3.4.1 will be out really soon (2 or maybe 3 weeks probably).
