<br>
one question I didn't have an answer, when we are talking of sidecars <br>
file, that's applicable to raw files only, but for jpeg it is embeded in <br>
the jpeg itself, so we shouldn't have the same problem, no? at least I <br>
hope my set-up is cofigured to behave in this way (I sent you the <br>
screenshot) and my problem was on the jpeg<br>
<br>
