See the previous thread "ValueError ..." in this group for a
workaround. I will post a fix to the sources and download tonight.

I just uploaded iphotoexport-1.3.1, which should fix this problem. It
was caused by photo timestamps that cannot be mapped to a date in the
calendar.

You must have a non-ASCII character in a photo title. I'll see if I
can reproduce this.

I choose Python as the implementation language for iphotoexport
because it's easy to share and maintain, but the price is that you
have to struggle to get it to work with Unicode values.

haha ~~
icic ~ that's mean because I used the chinese in the event name ,so
they can't export it ??

[Tilman]

I just uploaded iphotoexport-1.4. Give it a try - it should fix this
problem. I created an album and with some images using Chinese
characters, and I was able to export the album just fine.
