hi.
thanks for your answers.
the image format is jpg - it's coming from an ftp upload from an IP cam.
it should be post-processed in linux - only from the command line.

hello,

how can I insert a time stamp (date & time) into an image? the exif information is NOT available. the file creation time stamp is needed.
