Wrong time after upload

[people-rus]

When I import a photo saved on my PC, the time zone is lost when loading and because of this the loaded photo has an incorrect time, in my case +3 hours. I run the server and import on Windows. I tried different scenarios:

• I specified the time zone, on the server and when loading
• only on the server
• only when loading The result is always the same. Work log: │ INFO | scanned image file | file=IMG_20240814_090047.jpg time="2024-09-19T09:19.25 MSK" │ INFO | uploaded | file=IMG_20240814_090047.jpg "capture date"="2024-08-14 09:00:47 +0000 UTC" time="2024-09-19T09:19.26 MSK" I use 0.22.0 version of immich-go. exiftool command:

  if I upload it through immich Android or web - all right

[simulot]

That's a known problem In the current version, immich-go takes the date of capture from the file name, in UTC. That's finally not a good idea, some smart phone manufacturers use UTC, while other use local time as yours.

I'll turn off by default this feature in the next major release.
