Can't save GPS coords

Post by matm »

Hello,

I'm on Linux Mint, using XnView MP Linux Version 1.4.4 64bits (Apr 18 2023) with Libformat version 7.140

I try to add GPS coord to a photo where it's missing.
I found the menu in another thread: Tools> Metadata > edit GPS
I also found that we must limit ourselves in the number of decimals we provide (GMaps is way too precise).
When I click on the write button, the dialog closes, but the GPS data is not in the photo.
exiftool tab in Informations panel is blank, maybe I miss a piece of software ?

There is nothing confidential in the photo, I can provide file and coords for test if needed.

Any help welcome

Mathias

no problem to change GPS data, but do you have an unicode pathname?

No:

Code: Select all

/home/mm/Desktop/tmp
I even tried with

Code: Select all

/home/mm/Downloads
, getting the file from the link I provided.

I tried under Windows, working like a charm.

Is there anything I can do to try find the culprit ?


Best Regards

Est-ce que ça peut venir de l'install en Flatpak, avec un problème de permissions ?

J'ai essayé de prendre l'AppImage, sans succès:

Code: Select all

╰─ '/home/mm/AppImage/XnView_MP.glibc2.17-x86_64.AppImage'

En partant du paquet Debian, c'est passé !

Je vais ouvrir un ticket pour le Flatpak.
Par contre, pour l'AppImage, je vais ouvrir un autre thread.
