[Feature] document how dates are determined for photos / videos in timeline
Source: immich-app/immich#1947 · opened by @twitsforbrains
The feature
I used the bulk import tool to import my existing photos. However a bunch of them had incorrect dates. I don't see any documentation on what data is used to determine the date for these photos. It would be fairly easy to simply add a paragraph in the faq so that users who want to, can use tools like exiftool to update or use 'touch' to modify create / modify times depending on the logic.
So I guess my question is, what data is used for photo/video times? (I can make a PR if this is needed)
