Need help sorting out how to use 23? Or have you discovered one of those nasty bugs?

23 adds an extra "long" tag to geotagged photos

striatic   December 07, 2009, 12:44 AM

when i add geotags to my photos on 23 that i've generated at http://23tools.ikotikashi.de/geotagger/ - 23 seems to add an additional "long" tag before putting the photo on the map.

if i delete either long tag, the map disappears.

is this necessary for some reason i don't comprehend, or is http://23tools.ikotikashi.de/geotagger generating incompatible tags that have to be corrected?

actually i can delete the non 23 created tag and everything works fine.

hm.

I thought we had that "bug" sorted out, IIRC lon/lat should have a max of six digits - my tool has five so everything should be ok, unless 23 changed something in their code. I'll see what I can do.

Hm, is that still the case? I just geotagged a photo of mine and everything works as expected, no additional geotag added (my lon/lat tags had 6 digits).

try tagging something in seattle?

i have found that if i manually remove the last digit from the generated long tag, things work fine.

it's a bit annoying though.

i just tagged this one: http://www.23hq.com/striatic/photo/5145520

and a third tag was created.

i have a suspicion that your geotagging app isn't maxing out at 6 digits in all cases.

The limit was in fact 13 digits, I reduced that to 11 digits in my tool - could you test if it works now? (did for me tagging some place in Seattle).

Edit:typo

WFM!

geotagging will be significantly less annoying for me now, thanks!

Fine, no problem.
