Regarding date bug 2013 smart controller .
Dji promised an update this week or next week , hopefully. See smart controller forum. Many topics about this.
At the moment when turning on smart controller without wifi it jumps back to 18 jan 2013. If you switch it on when wifi available its gives correct time.but when flying you will not have wifi available unless you use you phone as hotspot

Same here on a DJI Mavic 2 Pro and it has nothing to do with SD card, type of Phone or Phone time settings (I used multiple SD card from different brands and 3 different iPhones all set to the timezone of the country I was in). I travelled in 3 different countries with different timezone and the timestamp is always correct on the photos but never on the videos. First, when I moved from France to New Zealand, the timestamp of videos was ahead of 12h (the timezone difference between the 2 countries). Then, we changed hour in New Zealand and the timestamp of videos offset by 11h (the new timezone difference between the 2 countries). I then moved to Samoa and the timestamp of videos was ahead by only one hour now (the timezone difference between New Zealand and Samoa).

It's been a recurrent issue noticed by many DJI drone users that doesn't seem to be solve by DJI. I hope my comment will help you solve this problem as it seems to be a complex one depending on the previous country you visited, the new you are in and the timezone difference between them. However, I still don't understand how the software can timestamp photos correctly but not the videos?!

Same issue on Mavic Pro 2 & Osmo Pocket 2. I don't recall this issue on my Mavic Pro when moving timezones.
iOS & Android with multiple SDs of different manufacturers too.
