When DNG Converter want to write converted image in a path with non-ascii characters, it fails with the error message : "Failed to save image". If there's ascii characters only in the path, DNG Converter works fine. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Open a RAW file within a non-ascii character path (e. g. 20121002 - Gribouille à la maison) 2. Convert and save it into the same folder 3. Actual Results: DNG Converter cannot save the image with the message : "Failed to save image" Expected Results: DNG Convert can save the converted image. Perhaps this is the same bug than here : https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=308465 This is the same symptom.
Confirm this bug for $ lsb_release -a No LSB modules are available. Distributor ID: Ubuntu Description: Ubuntu 14.04.1 LTS Release: 14.04 Codename: trusty $ dngconverter -v Qt: 4.8.6 KDE: 4.13.3 Преобразование в DNG: 4.0.0 Currently it is not possible to use dngconverter in directory with non-ascii characters in the name :(
I can confirm this bug. I am working with Kubuntu release 14.04 as well as 14.10; Current versions: Digikam 4.2.0, KDE 4.14.1 It took me a while to find out why CR2 to DNG conversion worked with all folders/albums except two. Then I saw that they were both from holidays in the Pyrenees mountains (in Dutch: Pyreneeën). Replacing the ë with e in the folder names fixed it. After that I could finally find this bug report.
I can confirm this bug. I've tested with several folder paths and the "Failed to save image" message always comes when the path includes a non-ascii character. I'm using .nef raw files for all the tests. This is particularly annoying for the spanish speaking community since the images folder in spanish is called "Imágenes", so that "á" affects all the conversions within such important folder. System: Fedora XFCE 20 with DIgiKam and kipi-plugins 4.6.0-1.
