When uploading pictures with EXIF altitude info stored as a rational value (like "4205/100"), UploadWizard imports that data without trying to convert it, then refuses to finish the upload because the value is not a decimal one.
Version: unspecified
Severity: normal
This is likely probably not UW specific, and it's probably the core metadata extraction code hasn't had an exception put in for Altitude..
public function testGPSExtraction() {
$filename = $this->mediaPath . 'exif-gps.jpg'; $seg = JpegMetadataExtractor::segmentSplitter( $filename ); $exif = new Exif( $filename, $seg['byteOrder'] ); $data = $exif->getFilteredData(); $expected = array( 'GPSLatitude' => 88.5180555556, 'GPSLongitude' => -21.12357, 'GPSAltitude' => -200, 'GPSDOP' => '5/1', 'GPSVersionID' => '2.2.0.0', ); $this->assertEquals( $expected, $data, '', 0.0000000001 );
}
suggests it's looking for a number, not a fraction...
This is bug 32410 (Which is apparently assigned to me, which i didn't even know until just right now until i was looking for it to dupe this bug to it).
Really I think the bug here is with UploadWizard, and the bug with core exif support is that it sometimes gets converted to a decimal, where it should never be... Meh, I should probably just change the exif support to do what UploadWizard wants.
