Originally created by @JayBigGuy10 on GitHub (Jul 8, 2023).
The bug
If I upload a photo taken by a device which stores the local timezone time/date directly into the exif date taken fields, and doesn't store a offset_time, the server incorrectly applies an offset.
For example a photo that I took when it was 2022/08/02 16:18 in new Zealand, appears on the server as if it was taken 13 hours later because the server believes the 2022/08/02 16:18 datetime to be UTC(+0) which needs offsetting, not the NZDST(+13) that it actually is
I have looked into various photos exif dumps and this happens with the Samsung Galaxy S9 and my OnePlus Nord (Android 10) photos from my hiking group which store local timezone, but not with the Samsung S10+, Samsung S22+ and Olympus TG-6 camera which store UTC/offset.
I guess the server will have to somehow assume that for these cases that the photos were taken in the servers current TZ?
The OS that Immich Server is running on
Docker Desktop (WSL Backend) For Windows 10
Version of Immich Server
v1.66.1
Version of Immich Mobile App
1.66.0 Build 89
Platform with the issue
Your docker-compose.yml content
Your .env content
Reproduction steps
Additional information
Running the storage migration does nothing
applies to read-only image library as well as uploaded images from the web
@JayBigGuy10 commented on GitHub (Jul 8, 2023):
seems that the mobile app (1.66.0 build.89) WILL display the correct time for files that are only locally on the device (not backed up) but displays the incorrectly offset time for files that are on the server
@uhthomas commented on GitHub (Jul 8, 2023):
I believe this is a duplicate of https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/2953, let me know if you believe otherwise.
@JayBigGuy10 commented on GitHub (Jul 10, 2023):
I'm not 100% sure I'm using exiftool correctly but I ran
exiftool -h IMG_20221002_161817.jpgagainst the image I used as an exampleThe output does have duplicate
create datetags like the issue you linked describes, but neither of them contain the time zone, the only place that it is present in the image is from the filesystem modification/access/creation dates(I attatched the immage at the end, but I'm not sure if github preserves all the tags)
@azuse commented on GitHub (Aug 1, 2023):
I think I have the same problem, my camera doesn't record a timezone info in exif, it only records a time in setting timezone, and in Immich web the time would be display as time+timezone.
For example my camera takes picture in 0:00am, the file create date would be 0:00am, but because I live in UTC+4 (or Immich server is running in UTC+4 TZ), immich would display the file create date to be 4:00am.
Only photo taken with my camera has this problem. Photo from my phone, video from my camera, they all display right time.
@jrasm91 commented on GitHub (Aug 1, 2023):
Let me clarify a few things:
These apply during the metadata extraction process, which happens in the
immich-microservicescontainer:TZ=.... If that is not set, it will assume local time is UTC.asset.exifInfo.timeZoneThese apply during the rendering of the asset info on the web:
asset.exifInfo.timeZone) it'll display the date with the associated offset.asset.exifInfo.timeZoneis null) it'll fallback to the local client's timezone to dynamically adjust it. If you are viewing it in Europe, the Americas, Asia the date with change depending on your location.@daniele-athome commented on GitHub (Aug 2, 2023):
This is important information. You should perhaps include it in the user documentation. Especially the part about the local client's timezone which sometimes doesn't work (i.e. think about Firefox
privacy.resistFingerprintingwhich hides the time zone).@JayBigGuy10 commented on GitHub (Aug 2, 2023):
the first bit does seem to have been documented already
https://immich.app/docs/FAQ#why-does-my-uploaded-photo-show-up-with-the-wrong-date-or-time-in-immich
was done a while ago in
https://github.com/immich-app/immich/pull/2003 to 'fix' https://github.com/immich-app/immich/issues/2000
well, whoops, guess this makes me the idiot who couldn't read the FAQ
