Convert and Date Preserve Wiki

I wrote a tool/frontend to convert MULTIPLE video/photos with your favourite tool WITHOUT losing the creation DATE and TIME. In this way if you use a program such Sony PMG you can still have them ordered by date. Initially intended 4 use w handbrake.
This works but takes some getting used to. Ten years after its publication, I've found this to be very useful for converting old files for upload to Google Photos.
Notes on practical usage:
MultipleAviConvDatePreserve\MultipleAviConvDatePreserve\bin\Release
It is not necessarily clear, but the program replaces the %source and %dest parameters in your "Set SCRIPT" parameter for each file you process. So if you do
HandbrakeCLI -i %source -o %dest
the process will run that command for each file, replacing %source with the source file and auto-generating a destination filename. In my case, 00033.MTS was converted to 00033.MTS.mp4.
