Ingesting: file modification time variables ?
« on: June 05, 2013, 06:13:26 PM »
Is there a set of variables that can be used to import files and name them according to file *modification* time ?

I've discovered that a number of my files (primarily videos) are getting named by their file creation time, which is often wrong  (because the file was copied from elsewhere).  The file *modification* time, however, is correct.

Is there any way to handle this besides adjusting the file creation times ?

No, there are no modification time/date variables.

Hi Kirk,

I often wonderen why you haven't included variables for moditification time/date. I would sometimes often like to see these too, so please consider this another request to add them  :)

Thanks,
