Thanks for the Windows info. So are you running digiKam in Windows?

Exiv2 writes warnings and errors to standard error. In newer versions, an
application can redirect this output and I think digiKam does, but I'm not sure
where it goes to.

If you can reproduce the problem, the first thing to do would be to check that
log for messages from Exiv2. I'm adding a small patch that writes out a few
additional messages. It applies to the current Exiv2 trunk version. If you're
using Windows, it would be great if you can use the trunk version instead of
0.22. The trunk is binary compatible with 0.22.
