With DVD Slideshow GUI I've tried to create a slideshow out of a few jpg images, with subtitles taken from their exif comments. Every image has been modified with IrfanView 4.00 - resized, enhanced, and given some comment (Image - Information - Comment).
To my surprise, each subtitle displayed by DVD lideshow GUI had '?' as the last symbol (without quotes), although I didn't put them there.
My first thought was there had to be something wrong with DVD Slideshow GUI. I described the problem on their forum, http://forum.videohelp.com/viewtopic...850447#1850447, and got a quick answer from the author. He suspected inconsistencies of the exif data format, and provided a link to jhead (http://www.sentex.ca/~mwandel/jhead/) - a program used in DVD Slideshow GUI to extract exif data from images. I tried jhead on my images, and indeed, every comment comes up with '?' appended. Jhead also allows all sorts of exif modifications, including modifications of comments. Comments written by means of jhead don't have any '?' at their ends.
Why does IrfanView append '?' to comments that are edited in the box resulting from clicks on Image - Information - Comment?
Best regards,
