1.95 b2: IPTC Field modify problem.

If one attempts to modify an IPTC field (ie one currently containing data) the change is not written if the "Update or Create XMP" option is set.

This operation is with the "Overwrite current values" button set and, at least, relates to JPG files (haven't tested others).

(I don't know if this was occurring before the current betas)

Thanks

Could you send me a jpg sample to test? And tell me which field do you change? And which options?

With Beta 3 the field is now written if the "Update or Create XMP" option is set. But Xnview crashes immediately and the programme has to be restarted to view results.

Confirmed, I have a crash too (v1.95b3 - "Ctrl+i" ) after adding an IPTC keyword and "write".
When I restart, the IPTC keyword is added into IPTC core but not into the XMP core.
