Hi f-spotters, F-spot is brilliant. Thank you so much for this amazing tool.
I first tried it a few months ago with on Ubuntu 7.10 with package 0.4.0-0ubuntu3, but I have a symptom that made the software unusable for me. I've eagerly waited for the next version to be in Ubuntu, and couldn't wait any long, so I updated to the Ubuntu alpha on one of my computers -- GNOME is so polished, it's fantastic! f-spot 0.4.2-0ubuntu2 Unfortunately for me, I still have the same symptom. It seems no matter how I import the photos, either from disk after importing using the default application Eye of GNOME, or directly from my camera into f-spot, the time of all the photos imported is off. It seems likely that the problem is that the images Date Taken exif data doesn't include the time zone, and f-spot is interpreting the time taken as cut time. For example, a photo's properties after importing using EOG are: Image Type: jpeg (The JPEG image format) Width: 3888 pixels Height: 2592 pixels Camera Brand: Canon Camera Model: Canon EOS DIGITAL REBEL XTi Date Taken: 2007:12:25 15:33:02 Exposure Time: 1/49 sec. Aperture Value: 0.97 EV (f/1.4) ISO Speed Rating: 400 Flash Fired: Flash did not fire, compulsory flash mode. Metering Mode: Pattern Exposure Program: Not defined Focal Length: 50.0 mm Note: Date Taken: 2007:12:25 15:33:02 In f-spot it shows as 25/12/2007 11:33:02 PM :( Thank you for any help you can provide, Lloyd _______________________________________________ F-spot-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/f-spot-list
