RE: Copy Attribute Problem - Not coping all?

Hi, Greg

Not all maker notes can be copied between different file formats. Especially
Canon uses pointers (absolute file positions) in their maker notes, which are
invalid once you copy them to another file. If IMatch would copy these maker
notes, other software, including IMatch, would crash trying to read the data at
which the invalid maker notes point.

It depends on the source file format and the target file format if it will work.

Subject: [imatchuserforum] Copy Attribute Problem - Not coping all?



Hi,

When I copy attributes some, but not all of the Canon maker notes in the EXIF
are not coping from one image to the other. Is the a bug? 
They copy ok in the Properties.

can Focal Lenght
Is the one that I'm most concerned about as my Quick EXIF, SlideShow & Web
Script all use the following:- {Image.EXIF.can Focal Length} at
{Image.EXIF.Focal length} {Image.EXIF.F Number}  {Image.EXIF.Shutter speed
value} {Image.EXIF.ISO speed ratings}

Although
can Image Type
can Owner Name
are also no coping. This is based on a quick scan down the list, there could be
others I missed.
