How to get Data-Taken For a Video file using Python

[ramprasad1211]

Hi,

I've lot of video files which are captured using Sony Handycam. What I want is to organize them using python script. So I'm looking for a way to read "Date Taken" for each video file and then use that renaming/organizing into respective folders.

Is there a way to extract this information?

What kinds of files are they? There's probably a library that can read them if they're in some common format.
