Hi friends,

I could use some assistance from more knowledgeable users in regard to using the Autorename Nextcloud app.

My .rename.conf
^(?!\d{4}-\d{2}-\d{2}\s\d{2}.\d{2}.\d{2}).*.(jpg|JPG|jpeg)$:{photoDateTime|Y-m-d H.i.s}.$1

My files detail:
123.jpg with exif → works well.
456.jpg without exif. (screen capture pic) → rename to wrong time.
789.jpg with exif → works well.

My .confuse case is as follows:

Thank you for your replies in other topics. I think the reason the name doesn’t match expectations might cause by “Return file modification time (UTC)”. Therefore, I would like to request that the application be able to rename the file to match the file’s location time? Thank you.

That makes sense, I’ve created an issue in the repository: Make placeholders timezone-aware · Issue #20 · powerflo/files_autorename · GitHub
