<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi all,</div><div><br></div><div>Well digiKam MUST save tags in HEIC/HEIF containers. In Windows bundles 7.3.0, the last Exiv2 0.27.4 shared library is used to manage metadata from files, and this release supports BMFF file formats.

<p class="MsoNormal">I am using digikam version 7.3.0 on Windows 10. When I make any tag changes to the pictures, all the tags are saved correctly to the JPG files, but they do not get saved to the HEIC files. The tags display fine through digicam, but when
I go to File Explorer and look at the properties of the HEIC files, none of the tags are there. The date stamp on the HEIC files also remain unchanged. I even tried executing “Write Metadata to Files” but that did not help either.<u></u><u></u></p>
