Haven’t yet been able to work through all of what you mentioned there. However, it does look to me like my problem has something to do with Version 1 verses 2. Consider the following:
-
First, I haven’t checked them all but a sample indicates that the xml files that I started with are all Version=1. Then when I replaced the single file named mil-canon.xml the replacement was Version=2 and the Cameras & lenses defined in it did not appear.
-
Second, when I substituted all of the files in the .zip download they all appear to be Version=2 and none of them are found/used.
This implies that something other than just the files needs to change in order to use Version=2 xml files and that however that is setup now is incapable of using Version=2 xml files.
I’ll get to your suggestions about the options file tomorrow.
