FIXED: HEIC Pic orientation is off.

26.0.71 (5/1/2020)

8. Fixed: Exif/XMP Metadata from HEIF/HEIC images is read properly.

Thx for implementing HEIC support along with metadata support however portrait pictures show up as landscape for pics taken from an iPhone. All good with Microsoft Photos so I suspect one little thing is missing in MC for viewing HEIC...

Thx!

I got them, and its a bit weirder then I expected. We do actually read the rotation values - but we read it twice. Both from EXIF and the IROT HEIF tag. Then its being processed once by the decoder, and once by MC, so its rotated twice .. duh.

But there should be a fix in the next build. You will need to fix the rotation tag in the database however. You can either clear it out manually, or run Update Library (from tags).

27.0.31 (11/11/2020)
1. Fixed: HEIF images were not rotated properly.

Works great as long as you do an update library from tags on files already imported.
Thank you!!!
