InPlaceBitmapMetadataWriter.TrySave() returns true but does nothing
- by mephisto123
On some .JPG files (EPS previews, generated by Adobe Illustrator) in Windows 7 InPlaceBitmapMetadataWriter.TrySave() returns true after some SetQuery() calls, but does nothing.
Code sample:
BitmapDecoder decoder;
BitmapFrame frame;
BitmapMetadata metadata;
InPlaceBitmapMetadataWriter writer;
decoder = BitmapDecoder.Create(s, BitmapCreateOptions.PreservePixelFormat | BitmapCreateOptions.IgnoreColorProfile, BitmapCacheOption.Default);
frame = decoder.Frames[0];
metadata = frame.Metadata as BitmapMetadata;
writer = frame.CreateInPlaceBitmapMetadataWriter();
try {
writer.SetQuery("System.Title", title);
writer.SetQuery(@"/app1/ifd/{ushort=" + exiftagids[0] + "} ", (title + '\0').ToCharArray());
writer.SetQuery(@"/app13/irb/8bimiptc/iptc/object name", title);
return writer.TrySave();
}
catch {
return false;
}
Image sample
You can reproduce problem (if you have Windows 7) by downloading image sample and using this code sample to set title on this image.
Image has enough room for metadata - and this code sample works fine on my WinXP.
Same code works fine on Win7 with other .JPG files.
Any ideas are welcome :)
