[digiKam-users] digiKam-7.0.0-beta2-20200105T135131-Win64 overwrite file 0x00 bytes

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,

This happen only with tiff files ?

How do you generated this TIFF file exactly ?

The Exiv2 library is the important component used by digiKam to delegate
all the metadata operations in files, and i suspect a bug in Exiv2 with
TIFF. I know that older Exiv2 version can be problematic with TIFF.

Can you share the TIFF file on the cloud to try to reproduce the problem
here ?

Best
