Warning: Truncated 'tL,\xd7' data

tongo opened this issue · comments

Hi, I'm trying to export GPS data from Insta 360 One R 360 video.
The command can't export all GPS data and return this error message:
Warning: Truncated 'tL,\xd7' data - ./VID_20211022_152729_00_004.insv

I have done a quick look on source code to understand why this error is generated, but I cannot find the right place where is generated this error.
Why this happens?
There is a way to export all data from the video?

I'm using exiftool version 12.35.

My command settings:
exiftool -config ./_ExifTool_Config.cfg -ee -m -p ./gpx.fmt ./VID_20211022_152729_00_004.insv > output.gpx

My _ExifTool_Config.cfg:
_ExifTool_Config_cfg.txt

Thanks in advance

If you can share the video I can take a look to see what is happening. If you don't want to make it public, you can email me directly: philharvey66 at gmail.com

Hi Phil, thanks for your response.
I shared with you a Google Drive folder with 3 videos.
Also the other video return this warning, but with a different value:
Warning: Truncated 'xxx' data

Thanks in advance

I downloaded the first video, and ExifTool extracts the GPS from it, but you do need to use the LargeFileSupport API option

exiftool -api largefilesupport -ee -G3 VID_20210710_152906_00_003.insv

I notice you do set LargeFileSupport in your config file. This config file works for me with the command you used, and produces the attached output:

output.gpx.txt

Many thanks for your time!
The output.gpx.txt for the video you tried contain all 9 min of GPS data.

Thanks

So I'm confused as to why you raised the issue in the first place if your original command worked?

Hi Phil, the video I want to extract GPS data is 'VID_20211022_152729_00_004.insv'.
With my configuration, my command, return that warning and there was only few GPS data in output, not for all video duration, so I supposed that "Truncated data" was related to GPS data.

Then I tried your command posted here and the output was the same: few GPS data, but without the warning.
Unfortunately there is no possibility to check the GPS data on the Insta360 Desktop app, so I used the Insta 360 mobile app and I discovered that there are only few GPS data in the original video!
So the issue is not related on exiftool, but is related on my video recording procedure.

Thanks for explaining.
