Hi! Yeah - TIFF is pretty broken, since exiv2 has issues. It was reported to be fixed in a later version, so I enabled copying meta-data if that version was detected - seems like it wasn't :/
I will see if there is a way to fix it, otherwise it will have to be disabled (which also disables the posibility to export TIFFs as anything but 8 bit sRGB :( Regards, Klaus Post http://www.klauspost.com On Wed, Sep 26, 2012 at 8:23 PM, chrono <[email protected]> wrote: > Ahoi fellow open-source photography followers, > > I have been using rawstudio for a while and recently updated to > 2.0 and have encountered some issues with TIF batch/exports but > let me first thank all people who have been helping to get rawstudio > to this state, where we actually finally have equal and better > alternatives to commercial closed source RAW converters that only > run on proprietary OS's.
