Chunjie, We need to know if crash is reproducible with more recent version of digiKam ? Gilles Caulier
@Chunjie digiKam 8.0.0 is released. This file still valid ? Gilles Caulier
With digiKam 8.x we update to last libheif library compared to 7;x version which use an older release of the codec. Here i cannot reproduce the crash, i have plenty of HEIF files generated with an Apple iPhone device. digiKam is also running under MacOS 12.6.3. I close this file now. Gilles Caulier
