Batch file mtime/atime offset shifter and EXIF or filename date synchronizer

File Timestamp and EXIF Shifter adjusts file modified (mtime) and accessed (atime) timestamps in batches on Linux using exact time offsets, embedded JPEG/TIFF camera EXIF DateTimeOriginal tags, filename date patterns, or fixed dates. A lightweight Linux alternative to FileDateChanger for fixing camera timezone offsets, restoring photo and screenshot dates after file transfers, and normalizing archive timestamps.

Key features:

  • Camera EXIF & Filename Date Parser: Extracts binary JPEG/TIFF EXIF DateTimeOriginal (0x9003), DateTimeDigitized, and camera model metadata alongside IMG_YYYYMMDD_HHMMSS and ISO filename timestamp patterns.
  • Flexible Shift & Sync Modes: Shift timestamps by exact +/- Days, Hours, Minutes, and Seconds (for camera timezone corrections), copy timestamps from EXIF or filenames, or assign an exact date and time.
  • Live Before/After Preview & Undo Journal: Preview current mtime, target mtime, and exact time delta before applying nanosecond-accurate os.utime() updates with 1-click Undo.
  • Batch Telemetry & Exports: Visualizes EXIF/filename coverage and exports full audit logs to CSV and JSON files.
