1.94: Exif data bug

Hello,
I updated from 1.93.6 to 1.94 and I found a problem using the tool for converting multiple images (Ctrl+u). I use a script to convert my images and after conversion the exif data of the images is gone. Version 1.93.6 did preserve that data.

The problem seemed to be solved but now the exif data disappeared again, even though I chose "Keep Exif".

With 1.94.1 the problem was solved, and now you have it again?

Hello ! Welcome aboard !
• That bug has been reported and confirmed also in the
FRENCH SECTION since last Monday…
- I can reproduce it here by 100%, while some other users can't, or get a different bug !
- It occurs with any operation on JPEG, even :
- Open the file, do nothing, save only >> No more Exif !
Kind regards,
Claude

I can reproduce this bug too, 100%.
Furthermore, I know what's causing it:
Weird EXIF makernotes.
Samsung ones, specifically; I see one of the french posters about this bug has a Samsung S850; I have an S1050. It's those photos that get thrashed, the ones from my friend's non-Samsung camera are handled fine.
To support my affirmation:
1) viewing one of my pics with PhotoMe gets me this warning:
"Too many items (12336) in IFD MakerNote (Manufacturer notes)
The number of tags in the Maker Notes IFD is very high. PhotoME has identified this as a problem and has ignored this IFD in the initialization process."
2) If I use ExifToolGui -> Remove Metadata -> EXIF:Makernote and
then try to save the image with XnView, the EXIF data gets preserved just fine.
...pleasepleasplease do something about this...

Could you send me a sample, please?

I've sent you a sample image. I hope it helps. By the way, in PhotoME you can only see the maker-note warning if you enable "show meta data problems" in settings.

I can't reproduce this problem, only load + save?

Yes, only by load then save. But as I already mentioned by mail, this seems fixed in the new 1.94.2; It was affecting only the 1.94.1 version, sorry for not realizing it was already fixed when I mentioned it.
