• I am a premium customer. I have found that Gmedia gallery does not recognize the GPS coordinates in any photos taken on my Sony camera. Please can you fix this?

    I am a premium customer.
    This is the 6th time that I have written to you about GPS coordinates not showing up in photos taken with Sony cameras.
    We have 2 high end Sony cameras in my family, a DSC RX10M4 and a DSC RX10M3. Both display the same issue. Multiple other cameras work fine. In frustration at your lack of reply, I have delved into the issue myself.
    I have discovered that if I use any EXIF editing program to change the EXIF:Make tag from SONY to Sony then Gmedia reads the GPS coordinates properly. Since this is a weird problem, I tried editing photos with a hex editor and discovered that if I change the 1st occurrence of SONY in the jpg file to SONy i.e. only changing 1 byte in the file, then Gmedia reads the GPS coordinates properly. If I change SONy back to SONY, then it breaks again.
    Since Sony cameras write the make as SONY in all capitals, can you fix this issue please because it is driving me crazy.
