[Bug 1541210] Re: Photos are displayed as 90 degree rotated in photo roll

 

@Florian: Not rotated wrong in gallery. Only when opening.

Attached a photo (not taken on Ubuntu phone). I believe what Lorn may
have been saying that it has happens on his Turbo device even with
Ubuntu, possibly because of hardware / tagging differences.

I haven't tested this on xenial, it might be useful to see if Qt 5.5 is
any different.

I guess what needs to be understood is the whole chain of possible
rotations of image - camera hardware, Ubuntu software liek qtubuntu-
camera adding a possible rotation bit based on some sensor data, app
possibly utilising the rotation bit from jpeg, and Qt possibily
utilising the rotation bit from jpeg.

Title:
  Photos are displayed as 90 degree rotated in photo roll

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in camera-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in gallery-app package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  On some devices where the camera is such that the Orientation exif
  data gets written  "Orientation |Right-top", as on Turbo.

  The camera app has problems showing the photo in the photo roll. Gallery also has this problem. Other apps will show it normally.
  The camera app view finder shows it as it should.

  When taking photo is portrait mode, the photo roll shows it rotated
  wrong.

  When taking photo in landscape mode, the photo roll shows it properly.

  The "My Photos" scope shows both portrait and landscape taken photos
  properly.

  This also affects photos transferred from elsewhere to the phone and
  viewed in Gallery.
