Using Digikam 8.3.0 on Windows.
My usual setting is to write metadata (ratings and tags) only to xmp sidecar files. Sometimes I want to write the tags and ratings into my jpeg files.
For this I change the bevavior to write to sidecar and file (not really necessary to reproduce the bug)
and select Item-> Write Metadata to file (this causes the bug)
This operation erroneously adds two hours to the image create date. My timezone is UTC+2, that might be the origin of the two hours.
This can be repeated an arbitrary number of times and always adds two hours.
This seems to be a bug. Any ideas on how to circumvent it? Some setting maybe?
