Ui-Bootstrap Datepicker javascript error : Type Error has no method 'getFullYear'

Question

I am trying to set a default date for ui bootstrap datepicker. The dates are coming from json and are in Unix timestamp format.

[ 
    { "type": "date", "name": "date 1", "value": 1375907474 },
    { "type": "date", "name": "date 2" },
    { "type": "date", "name": "date 3", "value": 1378590263 }
]

inside a directive, i am trying to convert the date and to bind it to ng model

scope.dt = $filter('date')(scope.required.value*1000);

but it gives a javascript error :

TypeError: Object Sep 7, 2013 has no method 'getFullYear'

here is a plunker : http://plnkr.co/edit/a9gfH8?p=preview

What am i doing wrong ?

The error you are seeing is the result of this:

"Sep 7, 2013".getFullYear()

What you want is this:

new Date("Sep 7, 2013").getFullYear()

Somewhere you're passing angular a string instead of a date object.
