Updating EXIF timestamps of photos and avi's, for use with Dropbox Carousel timeline
This should be a part of the Carousel app, but whatever. You'll need ExifTool and FFMPEG.
exiftool -all= -tagsfromfile @ -all:all -unsafe -icc_profile -overwrite_original .
exiftool -if 'not $datetimeoriginal' '-DateTimeOriginal=1980:01:01 00:00:00' -overwrite_original .
ffmpeg -i "input.avi" -metadata "ICRD=1980:01:01 00:00:00" -codec copy "output.avi"
