Camera EXIF and GPS data not being exported - Solved

@g-man

When exporting to AVIF, EXR, JPEG XL, or XCF, selecting specific metadata (e.g. geo-tag or creator) is not currently possible. For AVIF, EXR, JPEG XL, and XCF formats, darktable will not include any metadata fields unless the user selects ALL of the checkboxes in the export module’s preference options.

@Macr

It was one of three selections that I mentioned. I may work backwards to see if I can isolate which one exactly.

You may find that exporting metadata fails again as soon as you uncheck any one of them.

I’m not sure the presence of metadata in itself is important, the routine that writes the metadata may just skip when one of the boxes is not ticked
