            Bug ID: 422240
           Summary: Description caption appears as "binary comment"
           Product: digikam
           Version: 7.0.0
          Platform: Appimage
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

          Priority: NOR

Screenshot of description as "binarycaption"

SUMMARY
I use the Description field in the Captions panel to write some notes about the
picture, or just write whatever is in the back of a scanned photo.

For some reason, some of the pictures, after writing a description, and then
change some other metadata (Tags, date), or moving the picture to another
folder, the Description appears as "binary comment" (see attachment).

Sometimes re-reading the picture metadata solves it and the description
reappears. Sometimes it doesn't. It seems that restarting digikam does the
trick, though.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Go to Captions panel, Description tab, Captions field.
2. Write some text. Save changes (Apply).
3. Move the picture to another album within digikam, and re-scan that album so
you see the picture.
4. Select the picture and check the contents of the Description.

OBSERVED RESULT
"binary comment"

EXPECTED RESULT
The original caption that was written before.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
digikam-7.0.0-rc-20200526T141006-x86-64.appimage in ubuntu 20.04LTS
