930 - "corrupt" metadata written by Daminion?

Hi Murat,

I made a video - it's on my FTP folder. The name is: Daminion_930_error_ExifTool.wmv

Please watch this video and see that there is no error messsage in the ExifTool when I made the first modification of the DateTimeOriginal. Then I entered some Tags in Daminion and made the same modification of DateTimeOriginal in the ExifTool. Now I get this error.

I'm not sure if this pointer error leads to a situation that I can't read the photos anymore. This is for me a very high priority.

The camera is a Nikon Coolpix 510. The media format is JPG.

I never had such an error before with other cameras.

Regards, Uwe

Hi Murat,

 

yes it is reproducible. I entered and saved only the Title tag without to change the DateTimeOriginal or any other metadata by the ExifTool before. Then I used the ExifTool to change the DateTimeOriginal and got the error. But the error message is different compared to the first one.

Update 27.12.2013: I don't have this problem with JPG of my Canon camera

Hello,

 

I made some tests with JPG of other Nikon cameras.

Nikon Coolpix P510 - error

Nikon D90 - no error

Nikon D5000 - error

Nikon D7000 - error

error means: I get the error message in the ExifTool if I assigned a tag in Daminion before I changed e.g. the EXIF:DateTimeOriginal by the ExifTool.

Hello,

 

I found this: http://u88.n24.queensu.ca/exiftool/forum/index.php?topic=2124.0

 

As recommended I used this command line: -exif:all= -tagsfromfile @ -exif:all -compressedbitsperpixel -ycbcrpositioning in the ExifTool GUI

 

And now I can change the DateTimeOriginal. But what does it mean? Did I lose metadata?

 

Regards, Uwe
