Metadata extractor truncates some values... #39

Closed saulgreenberg closed 6 years ago

saulgreenberg commented 6 years ago

When testing with a reconyx image, the following values are returned truncated (compared with what is produced by Exif: http://exif.regex.info/exif.cgi )

Reconyx HyperFire Makernote.Trigger Mode T (it should be Time Lapse) Reconyx HyperFire Makernote.Ambient Temperature Fahrenheight 58 (it should be 58 F) Reconyx HyperFire Makernote.Ambient Temperature 14 (it should be 14 C)

There doesn't seem to be a point fixing it, as the consequences are very small (indeed one user likes that the C and F are missing, as they would otherwise have to remove those). Investigating it, it seems that it is part of the MetaDataExtractor package that produces this issue. It could be that its being typed by the exif tool and the extra information is added, by I don't know for sure.
