I wanted to build an awesome place for people to discuss module specific issues, but I don't have any more time for this, and there are much better places to discuss Perl-related issues. I'd recommend asking your question on Stack Overflow or on Perl Monks.
If you are looking for a Perl tutorial or Perl-related news, I hope these links will serve you well.

-geotag not working on jpg files extracted from .avi. Files incldued!
Hi everybody,

please help me in solving this geotagging problem.

I already spend the whole weekend on it, learning a lot, but unfortunately not making any progress at all.

I have 121 jpg pictures extracted from an .avi video using mplayer:
mplayer -vo jpeg:optimize=100:quality=100:outdir=/home/me/test/panos -sstep 12 /home/me/test/'file. +avi'


Manually I created a "track.gpx" file which should be valid and also match the "Date Modified" of the jpg's displayed by Ubuntu Nautilus file manager.

However when running this command:
/home/me/Image-ExifTool-7.76/exiftool -v2 -geotag /home/me/test/track.gpx /home/me/test/panos > /h +ome/me/test/geotag.txt


I only get this output, indicating that images have not been geotagged at all.
Argument "-Geotime<DateTimeOriginal" is assumed Loaded 5 points from GPS track log file '/home/me/test/track.gpx' GPS track start: 2009:05:24 14:23:15 UTC GPS track end: 2009:05:24 14:25:02 UTC Writing File:Geotag ======== /home/me/test/panos/00000036.jpg Setting new values from /home/me/test/panos/00000036.jpg Nothing changed in /home/me/test/panos/00000036.jpg ....


I tried it the whole weekend, worked especially on Timezone settings, but could not make it work.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

Please find the files (first 5 jpgs instead of all 121) and output of the commands I run here:
