Link to this entry   New ImageIngesterPro Version for Mac May 17, 2008 In version 2.4.02, volume mount events are now ignored during ingestion, to prevent IIP from generating an error. (This problem seems to have mostly affected Time Machine users.) Link to this entry   New ImageIngesterPro Version; No More Free ImageIngester May 15, 2008 Version 2.4.01 for OS X and Windows is now available, but use it with caution (treat is like a beta), since numerous internal changes have been made. The most apparent external change is that the thumbnail chooser now has selections. With Version 2.4.01, there will no longer be a free ImageIngester, although the 25-ingestion demo will remain. Version 2.3.x, which does have a free mode, will remain available for download at least until 1-June-2008. You may continue to use it in free mode, but no bugs will be fixed. All further development will be to Version 2.4 or later. Details of Version 2.4.01: [Incompatibility with version 2.3.x.] The Switch Mode menu item has been removed. [Incompatibility with version 2.3.x.] Any macro beginning with "datetime" was treated as if it were "datetime". This caused erroneous macros like {@datetimeoriginal} to be treated as {@datetime}, when they should not have been translated. (The correct macro is {@exif.datetime}.) Check your macros and your file names carefully to make sure you weren't using incorrect macros starting with "datetime". The thumbnail chooser now has selections, with new buttons Select All, Select None, Invert Selection, Check Selected, and Uncheck Selected. All existing lists and buttons are retained. Mac only: Changes have been made to try to fix a bug that caused a crash after ingestion when a viewer was launched. (This bug affected very few users and I have been unable to reproduce it, but it may now be fixed.) Bug that caused a crash when ingesting files with missing or invalid EXIF datetimes has been fixed. Also caused a crash when the image was examined with Tools-Examine. Ingestions that completed without a crash were not affected. Two utilities shipped with ImageIngesterPro hve been updated. gpsbabel is now at version 1.3.5 and exiftool is now at version 7.25. These utilities are only used for GPS tagging. Win only: The thumbnail chooser now has a minimum size. Win only: Images are shown at the normal thumbnail size even if the number of images is large. (Earlier versions reduced the thumbnail size.) Also, scrolling when the number of images is large has been improved. Thumbnails for Fuji raw files (RAF) are now shown in the thumbnail chooser. Link to this entry   Newer Entries  Older Entries
