I have some "cameras" (e.g. a dashcam) which do not tag their photos/videos with a "camera name". So they all end up in Unkown Camera, which makes it hard to handle. It would be nice if (perhaps when no "camera" information available or selectable) the SD card label could be used as "camera name".

  Use the exif tool to fill in whatever you want. It free and for all majer OS versions available.

  Thought about it, but that means I need to process the SD card before using it with Monument, which kind of defeats the purpose... still a viable solution for now.

  @MonumentTeam Which tag(s) does Monument look for in a video to decide which camera it belongs to?

  We look at two fields in the EXIF data. Those are defined in the standard as:

  • Make - Hex Code 0x10F
  • Model - Hex Code 0x110
