Date Taken Overlay #144

For media over a network share, it would be good to have an overlay option to show the file date or date taken for photos and videos.

This is something I hope to add in future - what's likely to come first is support for the EXIF data in photos.

But regarding the date take or file date, would you expect that to be a separate overlay or just an option in the Location/Description overlay?

The current thinking is...

I have a new Overlay called "Photo metadata", it will allow you to pick any two pieces of data/text from the EXIF data inside the photo.

The existing Overlay, Location/Description, will be limited to the something like XPTitle or ImageDescription - as I think that's what most people will use.

Hi - I think that would work for my use case. Happy to provide feedback for a beta version when it is ready.
