P: iPhone video Capture Time is shifted upon Import

Hi Andrew,

Please find below the date and time shown in Metadata Panel for the video you shared in Lightroom 6.10/CC 2015.10



I do not see any issue. Could you confirm the same?

Thanks,
Smit

Done.

Hi Andrew,

Could you share a sample video and screenshot of your metadata panel for the same video to keniya@adobe.com?

Thanks,

Iphone7 here and the fix still doesn't seem to be working.

I've got a video that shows this in it's metadat:
Create Date 2017:03:26 23:50:09
Creation Date 2017:03:26 16:50:09-07:00

and after updating lightroom to the latest version, delete the file from the library and reimporting, the time in lightroom for it is still 3/26/2017 11:50:09 PM when it was taking at 4:50 in the afternoon PDT (UTC-7).

Seems to be working for me with my iPhone 6s! Thanks, Rikk!

I find it surprising that this "fix" wasn't tested with actual video from an iPhone. I'm not aware of any iPhone owner who has not run into this problem in LRm, which begs the question do none of the developers at Adobe have an iPhone which they can take their own video and try it out? I strongly applaud Adobe for now finally trying to address this issue, but seriously, how could a release that "fixes" fthe problem be released and not tried on sample videos?

Thanks for being the voice of reason, Andrew.  

If some very fair criticism causes them to "change their mind and ruin it for the rest of us," then things are far worse than they even seem.  

Peter, calm down.  They are on it and fixing it.  Please don't make them change their mind and ruin it for the rest of us.

Simon and Tom, I appreciate your dedication to making your product better, keep up the good work!

Simon,

Thanks for the update.  What's the timeframe for the actual fix?

Are you blaming Adobe's delay of over three years (read up on this thread to my original post) on legal issues?  Seriously?  If that's what you mean, I call BS.  But maybe you mean something else.  

Do you mean that the reason this so-called fix is actually no fix at all is due to legal considerations?  I don't think so.  

In any event, here's some advice:  The next time you are asked, or decide, to acknowledge that your employer has screwed up royally, leave it at that.  Don't go on to vaguely blame the need for "legal clearance."  That just is not the reason for this comically bad effort on Adobe's part.  

Finally, when acknowledging that your so-called fix isn't a fix at all, I wouldn't recommend finishing the same post by saying, "The technical detail is usually the easy part."  It clearly is not.
