Total Commander

[Hacker]

Hi,
Just starting a new thread to let everyone (who cares ) know, that the official homepage of AddTime has moved from http://thehacker.host.sk/addtime/ to http://www.angelfire.com/sk/thehacker/addtime/ .

And AddTime standalone version is featured on the 25-year Jubileum Issue of the German Chip magazine (11/2003).

Thanks
Roman

AddTime Addon 1.03 beta is available at http://thehacker.host.sk/myfiles/ (addtime_addon_1_03_beta.exe), I'd be glad if someone might confirm if the 2-second precision limitation is gone under NTFS - ie if you can correctly add / subtract one second from the filetime.

TIA
Roman

Vansumsen,

Adding 1 is impossible with Fat (even only for seconds) this is not dependant of your addon but of the structure (limitation) of the Fat !

So I correct my text :

Add and Substract 1 second works fine unter NTFS; and Fat : only by even number of seconds ...
When you add 1 second to a "fat" time step is always 2 seconds

So 12:23:14 + 1s = 12:23:16
and 12:23:14 + 1s + 1s + 1s = 12:23:20
but 12:23:14+ 3s = 12:23:18

I'm I wrong ?

Cheers

Paul

Yes you are right - it is a FAT limitation and as my developer environment uses FAT I couldn't check if my program can correctly add/subtract one second on NTFS.
Thank you.

Is there anyone else willing to confirm? At least two confirmations would be nice...

TIA

Hello Hacker,

I stumbled across your addon for Total Commander while Googling for a possible solution to a problem that I've had since day-one with older data CD-ROMs that I've created under Windows 98SE, and then reading/viewing them under my current OS (Windows XP Pro w/ SP3)...

...incorrect file dates and times, usually resulting with all file times of all of the files and directories on the CD being plus 10 hours <arrgghh>. The weird thing is, when the CD is viewed on a Windows 9x (or DOS) PC, the file dates and times were correct.

Also, if I create an ISO of the CD under Windows XP and then view the files and directories inside the ISO using Total Commander, they look fine. But... when *extracting* any of them from the ISO image to my hard drive, the file dates and times are screwed up again (plus 10 hours) <double-aarrgghh>.

Anyhow, when I was going to burn revised copies of some of my CDs, your AddTime utility looked quite handy to correct the file dates and times before burning the newly revised CD(s).

I have Total Commander (been a happy user since back in my WinDoZe 3.x days ), but prefered to use your standalone command line version of AddTime to perform the time/date correction.

Anyways, thanks for this utility... I've been looking for something like this for EONS!

RFNagel,
Glad it's useful to you.
Not sure about what's wrong with the CD's, perhaps they're in UDF format and it stores the timestamp differently?
