How to Change Picture dates to Pre 1971

Postby Interdan64 » Sun May 26, 2024 6:01 pm

Hello,
Love this program,
I am scanning all my family photos and trying to add the date on each batch, to match year. To create timeline on Synology Nas.
I can only get the date to go back to 1971. I need to go back to the 1930's.
Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or is this a program limitation?
Any help would be appreciated . Dan

Hi, unfortunately this is a program limitation, BRU does not support dates before 1970.

This program is great. Thanks to all who support it!

I'm trying to rename hundreds of scanned photos with "date taken" prior to 1970 and ran into this program limitation. I'd like to put at least the month and year in the file name.

Has anyone found a good workaround? Or are there plans to address this program limitation?

Thanks!
