--- Comment #8 from Maik Qualmann <metzping...@gmail.com> --- Thank you, with the directory structure the problem can be reproduced well under Windows. The problem is clear, but can hardly be solved. JPG files are only loaded by the QImage loader, Exiv2 cannot read metadata. The QImage loader uses the Windows API directly and uses the correct UTF16 file name. We use QFile::encodeName() this function can convert all characters within the current code page, but not if characters are outside. We would have to use a wrapper to replace fopen() that under Windows only uses code page with _wfopen(). However, a test shows that even Exiv2 does not handle it correctly internally when we pass UTF8 file names. Maik -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
