Re: Problem with tags & metadata files (IPTC)

["Marco Laverdière" <marco laverdiere gmail com>]

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Using Jbrout, Digikam or Gnome Commander, the previous tags (that were done with Digikam) are visible (so there's a "tag" or "keyword" field in one form or the other) but the newly modified/added tags done with F-Spot are just not there.

Since Nautilus can show correctly F-Spot tags, would it be possible that Nautilus & F-Spot are relying on some different method/version of IPTC (or wathever else) for tagging?

By the way, I'm on Ubuntu Hardy.

Thanks again.

What is important to know is what these software are using for storing
the tags.

Is the tagging gone, or just not visible in these?
