XnView MP 0.38.10: XMP not written

First of all: great version, I really enjoy it, thank you very very much, Pierre! :D

I think I've found a bug though: I've changed the preferences so that whenever I add a pic to a category, the name of the category is written to the IPTC data, and an XMP file is also written. The second part (XMP generation) doesn't seem to work - neither with RAW nor with jpg files. At least I cannot find the corresponding XMPs in the folder with the pics (where they belong imho). The problem: When I open a RAW file sorted into an XnView category with a converter (e.g. Bibble), Bibble cannot find the category information and thus is not able to write it to the jpg output files. Or do I do something wrong?

Cheers,
Frank

For RAW, it's normal, not yet implemented.

So you have 'Export DB categories to XMP subject...', and no XMP metadata added to the jpeg file?

In 'Edit IPTC'/Options, which settings do you have for 'Mode'?
