Re: non-printable character in Description field



I unintentionally got distracted by this issue today, and rather than just muddle about poking sticks at the problem I tried to take a more methodical approach and pin it down. Interestingly, I'm no longer convinced it's an f-spot issue. I've blogged about it here:

and would be very interested to know what people think. Is it an f-spot thing?

regards,

Dougie

Should I log this as a bug?

Dougie,

I'm confused. Is this a problem you are seeing? If it is, then definitely submit a bug. If it's a problem someone else is seeing then based on what is in the message there isn't much to go on. But you can still submit a bug it rarely hurts. Preferably things like the output of running this import with f-spot --debug would be helpful and on a clean database as well.


Thanks,


Tim


Tim,

I've logged this as: https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=637790

It's not a big deal but a bit exasperating for me as I use the metadata from jpegs to overlay onto screensaver files, and I'm currently in the middle of a five-year mission to boldy sort out my photos. So it's cosmetic more than anything else. And rather puzzling. I suspect a lot of it's down to how various programmes interpret the metadata fields in jpeg files. Something I've never managed to get my head round.

Dougie
