Reading metadata of DNG files

Post by jotess »

concerns MP 0.60.
I tag my DNG files from my Pentax K-x using GeoSetter 3.4.34.2144. (Because I like to have the originals tagged and XnView can't do that yet.)
When I open the DNGs in Photoshop CS2 (Camera Raw) and convert them to jpgs, they get updated by Photoshop to contain the conversion parameters.
After that, XnViewMP doesn't display the IPTC&Exif info any more. XnView still does, and so does the ExifTool tab in XnViewMP, so I guess there is a bug in XnViewMP.
When I re-transfer the data via exiftool (from the jpg to the dng), the data is displayed. In my first tries I copied all data, but this destroys the Camera Raw conversion data. So now I don't copy xmp data but only exif and IPTC data and this is sufficient for XnViewMP to display everything as normal.
Best regards
