Created attachment 102928 [details] Image before and after the import When importing images with binary UserComment the image caption is set to "METADATA-START". I import an image via Import/Add Images which has a binary value in Exif.Photo.UserComment. I select one image which hasn't a description yet and press "Download selected". Afterwards in digikam this image has the caption "METADATA-START". exiv2 output before: Exif.Photo.UserComment Undefined 4104 (Binary value suppressed) and afterwards: Exif.Photo.UserComment Undefined 22 METADATA-START I would expect digikam to either interpret the binary value or completely ignore it, but not to fill the captions with "METADATA-START". exiv2 0.25 001900 (64 bit build)
