I am using RT for image processing, but for some reason I am getting images where the orientation is incorrectly set and exported. This means the images are rotated incorrectly, and even when I try to rotate them, when exporting, the images remain incorrectly oriented.
Thanks for getting back to me. I apologize, but I was out of town this week and was unable to reply. I just looked up the tags you mentioned in exiftool, and it says that my images have normal orientations:
These images are .cr2 files. If you’re aware of anything else I could try, I’d really appreciate it!
Thanks for your quick reply. I can’t access filebin.net at work, so I uploaded the images to Google Drive instead. I hope that is okay. You should be able to access the folder even if you don’t have a Google account.
The output images (where the issue is seen) are .jpgs. I also included the LR .pp3 files with the original .cr2 images (in the input folder). The image with the wrong orientation is 002045-1004171644338-Cam1, and the image with the correct orientation is 002795-1004171720095-Cam1.
@rehuerta I will try to look at them over the weekend. Before I do, tell me, have you manipulated them in any way? e.g. have you rotated them in-camera after shooting, or rotated them on your computer?
I don’t believe they were rotated in-camera or on a computer, but I understand that they were georeferenced and converted to .cr2 from another format (I believe a pure raw format). Lighting adjustment is one of many steps in our workflow (not the first step), and we’re hoping to use RawTherapee to replace Lightroom, but Lightroom doesn’t have this orientation issue. The camera was a Canon EOS 5DS. Hope this helps!
I have been figuring out ExifTool and it seems to be working well, and I have figured out how to adjust the image’s and the thumbnail’s orientation. But in response to @heckflosse possible solution, I have not seen how to change the embedded JPG’s orientation within a CR2 image.
Would you know the cmd ExifTools tags for retrieving and changing the embedded JPG orientation EXIF data for CR2’s?
@heckflosse How did you check the orientation of the embedded jpegs? I have been trying to find this function through ExifTool, but I have had not luck.
I have used this: exiftool -RawJpgInfo -RawJpgSize *.cr2 but nothing seems to come up.
I applied the patch to the RT code which I have downloaded from the RT Git.
I am almost there, I just need to build the code, but Cmake will not build the RT code (I do have Visual Studios installed). I am hoping you would be able to send me an executable file, or help me understand the best way to build the RT code.
