This extension detects and extracts metadata (EXIF / IPTC / XMP / ...) from potentially thousand different file types (such as MS Word/Powerpoint/Excel documents, PDF and images) and bring them automatically and natively to TYPO3 when uploading assets. Works with built-in PHP functions but takes advantage of Apache Tika and other external tools for enhanced metadata extraction.

This is mainly a bug fix release based on problems reported in the bug tracker. The version is raised to 2.5.0 because we explicitly (and hopefully temporarily) disabled the mapping configuration tool in Extension Settings actually only works prior to TYPO3 v11. Reason is that custom JS is not interpreted anymore. We hopefully will find a way out of it but instead of being "broken", it is now disabled. The other reason is that this release brings early support of TYPO3 v13 while keeping the backward compatibility with former LTS versions and as part of it, we spotted that the metadata file field "copyright" has been enlarged. This is something that we replicated in the database schema we provide and thus a DB update is suggested (although not absolutely necessary) for TYPO3 installations prior to TYPO3 v13. |

Since TYPO3 v12 (and v11 if optionally using typo3/cms-composer-installers v4), all extensions are located within vendor/ directory. This bugfix release addresses this change and allows file metadata's TCA to be properly overridden for images, thus pleasing all the photographers among us with many useful additional camera-related fields such as make, model, lens, shutter speed and so on... |

This is a bug fix release. For some users the extraction service would not be properly executed when uploading a file. This was related to a workaround we implemented to work around a design flaw in FAL which is re-extracting metadata when moving files around.

This release mitigates a design flaw for TYPO3 FAL present since TYPO3 6.2 LTS: when moving a file in fileadmin, FAL reindexes it afterwards, extracts again the metadata from physical file and replaces them in database, thus effectively leading to loss of information if a user manually edited the metadata. Problem is reported but is not yet fixed and will not be fixed for TYPO3 v8 anyway (possibly with ELTS plan? Even not sure). So for v8 users and as long it is not fixed in Core, this extension will simply "refuse" to extract metadata if they are already present in file. In addition a bug has been fixed where some PDF whose metadata where encoded as UTF-16BE in octal representation would lead to extracted title and other fields like "\376\377\000D\000o\000c..." which is absolutely useless! Finally a deprecated call was still present in TYPO3 v8 and is now migrated. |

Long-awaited release with support for TYPO3 v8, TYPO3 v9 and TYPO3 v10 so that it eases your migration path between LTS versions. Now with enhanced support for OPCache when not using composer, fixed support for encrypted PDF and last but not least, a better icon since this extension is about extracting and analyzing metadata and not "searching" for files. |
