Version: 2.2.0 (using KDE 4.7.2) OS: MS Windows According to email conversation with Phil Harvey - ExifTool Author - following XMP tags are not part of the XMP specification: XMP-dc:Type XMP-exif:DateTimeCreated Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: I don't exactly remember the steps needed to embed metadata in the sample file I sent to Phil Harvey. I think I used Image menu --> Metadata --> Edit All Metadata... route and typed test texts to all possible fields. Attached is however the exact same sample photo I sent to Phil. Expected Results: DigiKam should write metadata safely, correctly and robustly without the fear of corrupting your data. Only standard tags should be used when possible.
Sample photo's file size made it too big to attach.

"Xmp.dc.Type" must be "Xmp.dc.type" (capitalization). "Xmp.exif.DateTimeCreated" does indeed not exist. Both strings appear only in the metadata edit kipi plugin
