No infos shown after setting GPS-Data by GPSPhotolinker

[platti]

Hi,
I write the data for City, State and Country with GPSPhotolinker from a gpslogfile into the IPTC metadata of a rawfile.
When I open the IPTC Info window in PM, those data aren't shown. Why that?

I don't know.  Are you certain the data is in there?  Not many applications are capable of adding IPTC data to RAW files.

Hi Kirk,

I think so, as the data are shown in the informationpanel of the file on my mac.
EDIT: and the gpsdata themselves are shown in the gps-windows of PM ...

Well, if you want to send me a sample file, I'd be happy to look into it.  Please click on my name to the left of this message, then click on the 'personal message' link.  I will respond with upload instructions.

Thanks for the sample file.  It appears that they have placed the IPTC record inside the EXIF data which is definitely where it should not be.  This is unsupported by Photo Mechanic.  I suggest using that application only for its GPS capabilities and not for its IPTC capabilities.
