Hello,
I am trying this nice script out to be free of iPhoto (its scaring me
more and more, this not-having-the-keywords-within-the-photos-and-in-
case-of-a-database-corruption-everything-will-be-lost thingy).
So I am all excited!
However, it seems as if iphotoexport stops when it hits an Umlaut in
the description (such as ä, ö, etc.). Is there a way to prevent this?

Stephan,
the error above seems to come from a problem with a date in the
meta data of the image it tried to export, not the Umlaut. I do have
Umlaut characters in some of my images as well, and they export just
fine. I wonder if exiftool (which I use to read meta data in images)
uses the current locale to format date output, and maybe formats the
date in German date format. It would be helpful if you could run the
command below over one of your images, and send me the output:
exiftool -X <pathToImageFileHere> | grep DateTimeOriginal
You can pick any image you have handy - I just want to double check
the date output format of exiftool on your machine. The output should
look like
<ExifIFD:DateTimeOriginal>2010:02:07 12:27:04</
ExifIFD:DateTimeOriginal>

Hello Tilman,
I ran the command:
exiftool -X ~/Pictures/_iphotoexport-1.6.1/95260025.JPG | grep
DateTimeOriginal
<ExifIFD:DateTimeOriginal> </
ExifIFD:DateTimeOriginal>
So it seems as if the photo header might be corrupted, no?
That might be the case, I got those photos via dubious means (ie the
Internet, sharing site).
A photo that works gets the right output:
exiftool -X ~/Pictures/_iphotoexport-1.6.1/PhotosAssia084.jpg | grep
DateTimeOriginal
<ExifIFD:DateTimeOriginal>2005:07:19 04:56:57</
ExifIFD:DateTimeOriginal>
Thanks so much!

Thanks for the info. The code actually allows for missing or badly
formatted dates, but apparently it ran into a problem with the umlaut
when it tried to report the bad date for your image. I need to check
that out, and I'll try to come up with a workaround later today. I
just wanted to make sure we weren't dealing with a date formatting
problem here.

Please try iphotoexport-1.6.3, which I just uploaded. It should print
a warning message about the missing date in your image, but then
proceed without other problems. You can also set an image date from
within iPhoto. Make sure the "Modify original file" option is checked.

Hello Tilman,
Tried the new version, but it still quits.

Will try changing the date in iPhoto tomorrow.
Thanks so much,

Somehow you are not running the right version. The patched version is 1.6.3, available here. The error stack below is from version 1.6.1, with the old code:

Hello Tilman,
I tried again (replaced the entire directory again) and now it's
working...
it's just continuing and not quitting, as you said.
Thanks !
