Preserving Time / Date metadata in capture files

I'm sure I haven't looked deep enough for the answer, but I am trying to keep the date/time data in my SD and HD digital videos when I transfer them to disk. I'm copying over Digital 8 tape as well as HD DV tape using Pinnacle Studio and saving them as AVI.

Is there a file format that supports the original date/time stuff that's on the tape?

Thanks, very much

Jim
