> Onderwerp: Extracting recordDate from DV movie file
> 
> Hi all,
> 
> Short question:
> 
> How can I get the recordDate (ie date that the clip was first recorded
> on a video camera) from a DV video clip?
> 
> 
> More detail:
> 
> I have a pile of DV video clips. When I open them in iMovie HD 6 or
> CatDV, they can show the recorded date. But I can't see anyway to see
> the recorded date in QuickTime player or the System Events AppleScript
> dictionary, or the Image Events AppleScript dictionary, or any other
> way to extract the recordDate programatically.
> 
> The Finder's creation date is a different date since iMovie somewhere
> along the way has set it to the date that the footage was dumped from
> camera to disk or when the clip was split etc.
> 
> My main purpose in doing this is so I can correct the date that iMovie
> 08 uses for the clips since importing older projects ignores the
> recorded date and instead uses the (incorrect) creation date.
> 
> Thanks,
> Tom
