I use the tool GeoSetter, which calls ExifTool. I am getting the error:

Warning: Truncated NikonScan directory - C:\Temp\gbs_19981008(103).jpg

Is this an ExifTool problem or a problem with the generated command or my image?

Thanks.

Gary

The command generated by GeoSetter is:

Code:

C:\Program Files\GeoSetter\tools\ExifTool.exe -P -m -L -XMP:DateTimeOriginal="1998:10:08 12:01:03+00:00" -GPS:GPSSatellites="0" -GPS:GPSLatitude=39.76701600 -GPS:GPSLongitude=-86.15625500 -GPS:GPSLatitudeRef="N" -GPS:GPSLongitudeRef="W" -GPS:GPSDateStamp="1998:10:08" -GPS:GPSTimeStamp="12:01:03" -GPS:GPSMapDatum="WGS-84" -GPS:GPSAltitude="226.0" -GPS:GPSAltitudeRef="Above Sea Level" -XMP:GPSLatitude=39.76701600 -XMP:GPSLongitude=-86.15625500 -XMP:GPSDateTime="1998:10:08 12:01:03+00:00" -XMP:GPSAltitude="226.0" -XMP:GPSAltitudeRef="Above Sea Level" -XMP:CountryCode="USA" -IPTC:Country-PrimaryLocationCode="USA" -XMP:Country="United States" -IPTC:Country-PrimaryLocationName="United States" -XMP:State="Indiana" -IPTC:Province-State="Indiana" -XMP:City="Indianapolis" -IPTC:City="Indianapolis" -XMP:Location="Indianapolis" -IPTC:Sub-Location="Indianapolis" "C:\Temp\gbs_19981008(103).jpg"

Neither. You probably edited the image with another utility that didn't
properly copy the NikonScan directory. However, this is just a warning
and exiftool should fix this problem when it rewrites the image. There
isn't much useful information in the NikonScan directory anyway, so
it isn't a big problem.
