--- Comment #6 from MarcP <iwannaber...@gmail.com> --- I see. The metadata was only edited in digikam. Prior to that, this is what I did: I scanned the picture (using Xsane) to png, straightened and cropped the picture using gimp and saved to jpg, copied to a folder in my library, let Digikam refresh the folder, and write the metadata. After that, I tagged the picture, entered the date, and moved the picture to its definitive location. That's when I noticed the "binary comment". It happened to three or four of my pictures today (all of them were just scanned). Re-reading the metadata worked for most cases except one, in which I had to restart digikam to see the correct caption once again. The library is stored in a network folder, but I have not had any (noticeable) network issues for a long time. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
