Adding Gps locations to a raw file from a sony a6300 corrupts some data on the raw file. Possibly the White-balance information. This happens only when you enable writing metadata to raw files. Test to reproduce: 1)Go here: http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/sony_a6300_review/sample_images/ 2) Download http://img.photographyblog.com/reviews/sony_a6300/sample_images/sony_a6300_01.arw 3)Open it in the DigiKam image editor. The colors are fine. 4)Add gps info with the geolocation tool to the file and save it. 5)Open it again in the image editor and you will see that the colors are wrong now. This bug was confirmed by another User in the irc Chat.
As a note: If you try to download the raw directly over http://img.photographyblog.com/reviews/sony_a6300/sample_images/sony_a6300_01.arw you will get a 404 error. You have to download it over http://www.photographyblog.com/reviews/sony_a6300_review/sample_images/ (referrer check most likely).
This problem must be reported to Exiv2 team, as all the job in Raw file is processed by this libraw. In all cases, the Raw metadata writing option must be removed in digiKam metadata settings panel. It too dangerous to use. I propose to do it for 6.0.0 release. The subject is open. Gilles Caulier
http://dev.exiv2.org/issues/1309 Also if you really want to remove tagging raw files, i would at least leave it in for tagging dng. Since the dng file format is open there should be no more risk than with jpeg.
I've done an experiment. I change the metadata of a raw file once directly with exiv2 and once with Digikam. The result was that the Digikam file got corrupted and the command line one didn't. https://www.dropbox.com/s/twy49qw7ecnqpf7/Metadata%20Digikam.ARW?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/1dyz2d90glim04i/Metadata%20exiv2.ARW?dl=0 The exif output is the same in both. Terminal output below. It's Digikam specific as far as I can tell. (In the output the picture with _2 was edited by Digikam and the other one by exiv2) [#]$ exiv2 DSC04326.ARW File name : DSC04326.ARW File size : 20676608 Bytes MIME type : image/tiff Image size : 5504 x 3656 Camera make : SONY Camera model : SLT-A58 Image timestamp : 2017:09:18 04:44:44 Image number : Exposure time : 1/20 s Aperture : F11 Exposure bias : 0 EV Flash : No, compulsory Flash bias : 0 EV Focal length : 40.0 mm (35 mm equivalent: 60.0 mm) Subject distance: ISO speed : 640 Exposure mode : Auto Metering mode : Multi-segment Macro mode : Image quality : n/a Exif Resolution : 5504 x 3656 White balance : Cloudy Thumbnail : image/jpeg, 6128 Bytes Copyright : Exif comment : [#]$ exiv2 DSC04326_2.ARW File name : DSC04326_2.ARW File size : 20554786 Bytes MIME type : image/tiff Image size : 5504 x 3656 Camera make : SONY Camera model : SLT-A58 Image timestamp : 2017:09:18 04:44:44 Image number : Exposure time : 1/20 s Aperture : F11 Exposure bias : 0 EV Flash : No, compulsory Flash bias : 0 EV Focal length : 40.0 mm (35 mm equivalent: 60.0 mm) Subject distance: ISO speed : 640 Exposure mode : Auto Metering mode : Multi-segment Macro mode : Image quality : n/a Exif Resolution : 5504 x 3656 White balance : Cloudy Thumbnail : image/jpeg, 6128 Bytes Copyright : Exif comment : test [#]$ exiv2 -M"set Exif.Photo.UserComment charset=Ascii exiv2 write" DSC04326.ARW [#]$ exiv2 DSC04326.ARW File name : DSC04326.ARW File size : 20676608 Bytes MIME type : image/tiff Image size : 5504 x 3656 Camera make : SONY Camera model : SLT-A58 Image timestamp : 2017:09:18 04:44:44 Image number : Exposure time : 1/20 s Aperture : F11 Exposure bias : 0 EV Flash : No, compulsory Flash bias : 0 EV Focal length : 40.0 mm (35 mm equivalent: 60.0 mm) Subject distance: ISO speed : 640 Exposure mode : Auto Metering mode : Multi-segment Macro mode : Image quality : n/a Exif Resolution : 5504 x 3656 White balance : Cloudy Thumbnail : image/jpeg, 6128 Bytes Copyright : Exif comment : exiv2 write
The same version of exiv2 in both cases and which version(s)?
The only differences here to touch file : - Exiv2 CLI : on thread (one process in fact) - digiKam C++ API : multi-threaded as GPS editor use QFuture internaly as i remember. No more. digiKam do not touch the file as well. All is delegate to Exiv2 core. So the internal Exiv2 implementation must be re-entrant and thread safe. It's mandatory. The digiKam implementation is thread safe of course as all digiKam use multi-threading everywhere, when it's possible. Gilles Caulier
The problem is in Exiv2. Write with exiv2 e.g. an XMP tag to the image, after that it is also broken. Maik
Hi Maik, This is why i think since a long time to remove the option to write metadata to RAW files and let's only the way to support XMP side car for read only files. Gilles
Hi Gilles, I can remember the desire of a user that we should allow writing to DNG files. Ih would suggest that we make a white list and allow only DNG, NEF and CR2 at the moment. With a hint in the GUI. Maik
yes, Right Maik, DNG is fully document to be R/W easily. After al it's an improved TIFF file (TIFF/EP more exactly). So disabling RAW metadata for all format excepted the DNG is the right way. In all cases, as i can see in Exiv2 github forum that i follow, the project is active, but all around RAW writing support is drop from future plan. Gilles
Maik, The UPSTREAM report is done through http://dev.exiv2.org/issues/1309 I know that Exiv2 team backport step by step all old issues to github. I propose to close this entry as RESOLVED/UPSTREAM. We have certainly one other entry in bugzilla about to drop RAW metadata writing support. Gilles
It is difficult, many users want to write metadata to RAW files. I would like to allow NEF and CR2, so far no problem has been reported. DNG is not sure, we can reproduce a broken DNG file. We will test it with the next version of Exiv2, but probably there will be no progress in this area. I also thought about leaving an entry in the digiKam settings to enable write support again. This must be done manually and the user then does so at his own risk for his RAW images. Maik

Can you reproduce the dysfunction using the last digiKam 6.0.0-beta3 just released ? https://www.digikam.org/news/2018-12-30-6.0.0-beta3_release_announcement/
After 3 weeks of work, i finally completed the compilation of AppImage using Qt 5.11.3 + QWebkit 5.212. New 6.1.0 pre-release AppImage bundle can be found here (64 bits only for the moment) : https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Please check if this bugzilla entry still valid. Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier
Hi, Can you check if this problem still exist with last weekly bundle build of digiKam 7.0.0 available here: https://files.kde.org/digikam/ Thanks in advance Gilles Caulier
digiKam 7.2.0 official release is published with more than 360 files closed from bugzilla: https://www.digikam.org/news/2021-03-22-7.2.0_release_announcement/ Can you reproduce the dysfunction with this version ? Thanks in advance for your feedback Gilles Caulier

Git commit 80ecdd9980c6cf14789606455bf9d367c1ffef51 by Gilles Caulier. Committed on 08/04/2022 at 03:25. Pushed by cgilles into branch 'master'. Use only ExifTool backend to write metadata to RAW files, as Exiv2 is fully unsafe with these kind of operations. Reading and Writing metadata to video files is now delegate to ExifTool Backend too.
