sounds good...
but automatic detection would be even better.

I've been searching for an automatic detection algorithm, but found nothing. We could add a configuration parameter :

Code:

// what is the encoding use by the software you use to add IPTC metadata?
// "auto" will detect "utf-8" or "iso-8859-1". Set it to "macintosh" if you
// use Adobe products with your Mac
$conf['iptc_encoding'] = "auto";

as of now there is absolutely no support for Mac Roman. However that would not be that difficult to manage. just need a developper ready to "learn" mac roman and decode that into utf-8 ...

In the source code you indeed wrote:

rvelices in Piwigo source code wrote:
// apparently mac uses some MacRoman crap encoding. I don't know
// how to detect it so a plugin should do the trick.

I just found a MacRoman_to_utf8 function and it works well with Polly photo but it doesn't solve the automatic detection question.

Hello,

- in this case IPTC data is added through adobe lightroom
- yes i'm using a Mac
- piwigo version 2.1.2
- default encoding used by adobe lightroom (dont know which encoding)

Problems:
- piwigo 2.1.1 -> Cutting the tag right before the umlaut
- piwigo 2.1.2 -> see the attached picture

Thanks for your help.

Yes, he is: Adobe [Software] => Adobe Photoshop CS3 Macintosh.

2 weeks ago, I have discussed with a Mac user that had problems with accents when he was using his Mac to fill IPTC tags.

are you using a Mac ?
I think Mac uses a "Mac Roman" encoding which is neither iso-8859-1 nor utf-8

Hi Polly, nice to read you again :-)

I thought you're problem was related to [Bugtracker] bug 1663 in which rvelices fixed an encoding bug that was introduced in Piwigo 2.1. I reproduce the bug with Piwigo 2.1 BUT I thought there would be no bug with Piwigo 2.0 so I tested on Piwigo 2.0.10 and it doesn't work, there is also the umlaut problem!

* 2.0.10 : problem
* 2.1.2 : problem

How do you add the IPTC tags?
Do you know the encoding used by your software?

Hey everybody,

today i saw that the IPTC data is not able to display german umlauts.

as you can see here, only nice squares are displayed instead.

Is there a trick to display umlauts correct?

Thanks!
