Oliver, a German user has reported a problem in batch conversion. When adding TIF files using the 'Choose files' dialog, only lower case TIF files are added.

To reproduce the problem:

== Prerequisite
1.) A folder with tif files with upper and lower case 'TIF' extension
2.) A sub folder with tif files with upper and lower case 'TIF' extension

Example:
C:\test\test 1.tif
C:\test\test 2.TIF
C:\test\sub\test 3.tif
C:\test\sub\test 4.TIF

1.) Select 'Tools > Batch Processing'
2.) Click on 'Add...' button
3.) In 'Choose files' dialog...
3.a) ... select 'TIF - TIFF Revision 6' as file type.
3.b) ... activate the checkbox 'Include sub-directories'.
3.c) ... navigate to drive 'C:\'. Drag & drop the folder 'test' from the upper list to the lower list.
Result in the list will be:
C:\test\test 1.tif
C:\test\sub\test 3.tif
--> In the lower list, you will see the lower case files, only, the files with upper case file extension are missing

What's about entering "*.tif" to the box? same problem?

I tried it with the entry "JPG - JPEG/JFIF" and get both upper- and lowercase extensions.

Thank you for verifying, Peter!

Entering *.tif was my first thought, but the value entered in the box is just a filter that is applied to the current directory for viewing.

I've tried and the problem also occurs with JPG files. Could you please check, again?

Mmmmh
At the moment I have problems to use the "Subfolder option". I can select it, but nothings happens. Select all files and subfolders - press "Add" - only the current files were added.

But clicking through the folders works fine - it takes lower- and uppercase.extensions.
