Title: Can't parse MakerNotes from iPhone 14 .heic
Post by: eeeps on October 21, 2022, 02:23:07 PM
Here's a file: https://o.img.rodeo/img_2026.heic

And here are some errors:

Code Select
% exiftool -v img_2026.heic | grep Warning
  | | | | | Warning = [minor] Bad format (16) for MakerNotes entry 13
  | | | | | Warning = [minor] Bad format (16) for MakerNotes entry 20
I *think* those MakerNotes came right from the iPhone that created this file, although it has been passed through some other software before it got to me.

Any idea what those MakerNotes are? Is this a problem for all iPhone 14 photos?

Apple started using BigTIFF format codes in HEIC files.  ExifTool 12.46 and later have support for this.
