MG 2.1 MediaGalerie Problem mit EXIF

[Tamara-Jasmin]

Hello,
I and some users have problems uploading pictures.
Many pictures bring the following error message:

InvalidArgumentException: Failed to convert to JSON. Error: Malformed UTF-8 characters, possibly incorrectly encoded [exif_data] in src/XF/Mvc/Entity/Entity.php at line 740

When I delete the exif data it works.
It probably only affects photos with Exif data.

Hmm, this should have been fixed as reported by @Chris D here,

Fixed - InvalidArgumentException: Failed to convert to JSON. Error: Malformed UTF-8 characters, possibly incorrectly encoded [exif_data]

If i want to upload an image, i got this error. But not every image. Attached a example of the image. InvalidArgumentException: Failed to convert to JSON. Error: Malformed UTF-8 characters, possibly incorrectly encoded [exif_data] src/XF/Mvc/Entity/Entity.php:740 Generated by: McAtze Jan 18...

I moved this from XF bugs but actually I just recalled that the change we made to fix this was actually in XF 2.1 itself, rather than the gallery.

Even so, that should have been included in XF 2.1 Release Candidate 2 and of course XF 2.1 stable.

So @Tamara-Jasmin is this definitely still happening in XF 2.1 stable, or could the errors have been from an earlier version. If you are able to still reproduce the issue, could you please provide some images that trigger the errors?

Excuse me!
I have been updating all weekend. On the 2.1 release, on at least 5 AddOns. I was convinced that I also updated XFMG.
She was still on RC1.
Please forget. The test was ok! Sorry!

Ah makes sense. When I found the commit we made to fix this I overlooked the bit that did have changes in XFMG so good to know that sorted it.
