Description

Two sample files:
http://mitago.net/tmp/Olympus_E500.orf
http://mitago.net/tmp/Olympus_E510.orf

On E500 exiv2 fails to extract big preview:

$exiv2 -pp Olympus_E500.orf
Olympus_E500.orf      Preview 1: image/jpeg, 160x120 pixels, 10167 bytes
Olympus_E500.orf      Preview 2: image/jpeg, 160x120 pixels, 10167 bytes 
                                             ^^^^
                                             No big preview

While it works on 510 files:

$exiv2 -pp Olympus_E510.orf
Olympus_E510.orf      Preview 1: image/jpeg, 160x120 pixels, 8295 bytes
Olympus_E510.orf      Preview 2: image/jpeg, 1600x1200 pixels, 394571 bytes


If I try with exiftool, it shows the correct ones
$ exiftool Olympus_E500.orf | grep Preview
Preview Image Valid             : Yes
Preview Image Start             : 24576
Preview Image Length            : 417457
Preview Image                   : (Binary data 417457 bytes, use -b option to extract)
$ exiftool Olympus_E510.orf | grep Preview
Preview Image Valid             : Yes
Preview Image Start             : 24576
Preview Image Length            : 394571
Preview Image                   : (Binary data 394571 bytes, use -b option to extract)

Confirmed. I extracted the preview images using exiv2 -ep. They are both the same small size for the E500.

exiftool does extract the large preview image

exiftool -b -PreviewImage -w _preview.jpg Olympus_E500.orf

This issue has been in the database for 6 years and nobody else has requested progress with this matter. So, unless you engage to persuade me to keep this matter alive, it will be closed on April 30 as "no longer needed/wanted".

The bug is still valid with exiv2 0.25...

I'll move it to Target 1.0 and it'll be considered for v0.27. I'm closing on code-complete for v0.26 and this will not be in v0.26. I haven't started to schedule v0.27 yet.
