Issue adding image from Australia #367

Open paulwakeford opened 4 months ago

paulwakeford commented 4 months ago

Hi, I'm adding my backlog of benches in. The UK ones have gone fine. I'm trying now to add one I found in Australia.

1/ If I try to drag and drop the photo from Photos (the same way I did the UK ones), the site errors saying there is no GPS data in the photo - there is. Lat 35° 2' 34.54" S Long 150° 40' 35.832" E

2/ If I export from Photos and upload, the photo is displayed OK but the text box doesn't fill with text (and the text ios very clear), and also doesn't allow me to enter any text - it's like the text box is read-only. I'll try tp attach the photo...

IMG_3210

That's uploaded as a PNG. Could you please email me the original photo and I'll see what's going on. Contact details on https://edent.tel/

If I convert that PNG to a JPG, and preserve the EXIF tags, it works.

exiftool -tagsfromfile in.png -all:all out.jpg

OpenBenches only works with JPG. I've no idea why Apple Photos is exporting it as a PNG. Very strange!

paulwakeford commented 4 months ago

Ah.. I exported as PNG because the HEIC is pretty big. Will email the unmodified original.

edent commented 4 months ago

You'll need to convert to JPG. We can't support HEIC. See #190

paulwakeford commented 4 months ago

Suggestion to disallow PNG as an upload format if it's not properly accepted - the PNG is the upload described in 2/. The HEIC upload hung completely so I though HEIC wasn't accepted..

That's the weird thing. The file picker is set to only allow JPG or camera input. So I've no idea how you were able to get a PNG on there 😄

paulwakeford commented 4 months ago

OK.. so using the same phone, same settings, same Photos, same drag and drop from the same browser.. the UK photos workm the AU one doesn't. I don't get it. Unless the drag process from Photos is auto-converting to JPEG for the UK ones but PNG for the AU one for an odd reason?

I'll just convert to JPEG and move on I reckon :)

(Same phone for taking the photos - all uploads via macOS).

paulwakeford commented 4 months ago

For me the file picker isn't restricting file types at all, allows selection of PDFs, GPX files etc.

edent commented 4 months ago

How odd! Which OS and browser are you using please?

paulwakeford commented 4 months ago

macOS 14.4.1, Firefox 125.0.3.
