Description MarcP 2018-06-11 12:11:57 UTC
Some face regions are drawn incorrectly. They look like the face region would correspond to the faces if the picture was rotated. Maybe the picture was rotated at some point in the past, but the face region remains. I think it has to do with the camera model, since it happens in most vertical pictures taken with a specific camera (Panasonic DMC-FZ38).

See example picture attachment. The xmp info is written directly into the file.

The same face regions in these pictures are displayed correctly in other software (Picasa).
Comment 1 MarcP 2018-06-11 12:14:10 UTC
The attachment failed due to file size. I uploaded the picture and a screenshot showing the incorrect face regions to google drive. This is the link https://drive.google.com/open?id=16FscWv-z7qzedM5dbc8ZxGkAZ11sGP2r
