Nik BhattKeymasterProbably nothing. I have received a few reports of time zone issues – cameras often do not put time zones into the file, so setting the time is not straightforward. Photos also has its own notion of time, which can conflict with the time in the file. Please email support@gentlemencoders.com and I can help you directly. I will need a sample file or two, but we need to do that over email not here (and I will send instructions over email as well for what I need).
Nik BhattKeymasterHi, sorry to hear you are having this problem. I have not run into it myself. I created an EXFAT partition on an SSD (I did it on the Mac, fwiw). Then, I put some images into the root of the volume and inside a folder in the volume. I added both to Nitro. Then I selected images in each of the root and the folder and then used the trash icon to delete them. Both worked fine and the app continued to run without freezing.
Can you find a crash log or something that I can look at? You can find those in Settings > Privacy > Analytics > Analytics Data and search for the app.
Also, do you have problems deleting files if they reside in a folder on your iPad, rather than the external disk?
Nik BhattKeymasterNitro does not support HDR data in JPEG / HEIF images. It’s on the list to do.
As you suspect / experienced with Photomator, it’s a hard problem to solve in general (and it’s not wise to solve it only partially).
Any edit operation in Nitro will not retain the HDR data (though Revert will restore the data).
Star ratings / flag / keywords are fine to use.
Nik BhattKeymasterThanks for the suggestion. I made a note of your request.

Nik BhattKeymasterNitro does not modify original images, so it uses sidecars in all cases. However, Adobe never provided a naming strategy for XMP except for proprietary RAWs, so I had to make one up. So, if you are tagging JPEGs, DNGs, TIFFs, etc. the Nitro sidecar is probably not detected by other apps. If you export to a HEIC, then Nitro will write the ratings into the file.
I plan in the future to let people just use “.xmp” for those sidecars, but that will cause problems if you shoot RAW+JPEG because both R and J will want to write to the same XMP file.
Nik BhattKeymasterI just tried an X-T5 and I can see the impact of RAW Contrast. I have to zoom into 100%, but I can see it. It will enhance edges, so look at those parts of the image (in my case, it was a cat’s fur).
Nik BhattKeymasterPress Return to enter a keyword.
They will be added to the file automatically when you export unless you turn off metadata.
Nik BhattKeymasterGreat, thanks!

Nik BhattKeymasterNitro doesn’t offer a file name sort because the Photo Library does not provide that as a sort order. Nitro *could* sort in whatever way it wants, but I found that offering non-standard sorts causes severe performance issues with larger libraries.
Nik BhattKeymasterYes, this is a bug in the extension – when you zoom in, the mask overlay is not being shown. It’s on the list to fix. Sorry for the bug.

Nik BhattKeymasterI’m glad it’s working. But: please, always tell me if you are on a beta OS. That adds an very important variable to the equation. In general, the version of the app and the version of the OS are good things to include.
Nik BhattKeymasterWow. That is quite a mess. Thanks for sharing your experience – terrible though it was.
Nik BhattKeymasterNot sure. Might be a permissions issue. I suggest adding the folder that has the images to Nitro first. Then send them to Nitro from PM.
Nik BhattKeymasterYes, but I have been busy with the new Eraser algorithm (replacement for retouch).
Nik BhattKeymasterIf you are on a Nitro subscription or trial and want to buy the lifetime, do this:
- Open Nitro, go to app Settings and pick View Prices.
- Purchase the Lifetime (the price you see is the discounted price).
- If you have a subscription, go back to app settings and pick Manage Subscription and then cancel your subscription.
