Description
Steps to reproduce
- Ensure Live Photo upload is enabled
- Upload an old Live Photo
- Examine the "Modified" date of the HEIC/JPEG and the MOV file in the NextCloud web interface
Expected behaviour
The two files have the same Modified date.
Actual behaviour
The image file has the correct Modified date but the MOV file date shows as "seconds ago"

N/A
Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?
This feels like a fairly minor issue to me, but it was an annoyance when I first moved to NextCloud and uploaded my iPhone Camera Roll, the image files themselves were properly organised by date but the Live Photo video files were not.

Research direction
Start by tracing the Live Photo upload handling in the iOS app, comparing how the HEIC/JPEG and MOV files receive their modified dates. Reproduce the upload with an old Live Photo and verify that both files show the same Modified date in the Nextcloud web interface.
