If I remember correctly, it is determined from EXIF values and as a last
resort the file date. But I would have to look at the code to be sure.
Anyway, I don't see a big problem here, since it is very unlikely that
two unrelated images have the same prefix, both don't contain EXIF
information, one being a raw and the other a jpeg, and that they have
the same file creation time.
