Post Processing Options dates bug

[cheaters]

v5.1.3
macOS 14.5

When both "Set creation date" and "Update time stamp" are selected "Update time stamp" overwrites the "creation date" as well as the "modified date". This wasn't the case in the recent past.

I was previously able to have two dates using both of these checkboxes: The creation date of the episode, and the last modified date.
Now I can only choose between both creation date and last modified date being the date the episode was released (Set creation date) OR the creation date and modified date being the modified date (Update time stamp).

Thank you

Here's what I get on macOS with a local file:

Console Output: Select all

$ filebot -rename *.mp4 --db TheMovieDB --apply date touch
...
[MOVE] from [Avatar.2009.mp4] to [Avatar (2009).mp4]
[DATE] 2009-12-15 (Avatar (2009).mp4)
[TOUCH] 2024-05-06T17:47:00Z (Avatar (2009).mp4)
...
$ stat *.mp4
... "May  6 17:47:00 2024" ... "Dec 15 00:00:00 2009" ... Avatar (2009).mp4

Are you by any chance processing files on a remote Linux-based OS?


If you're processing files on macOS / local APFS file system then it'll work. But if you process files on a remote network share that is Linux-based, then the underlying Linux file system has no "creation date" attribute separate from the "last modified" attribute. Setting one will implicitly set the other.
