My only complaint is with how the plugin handles errors. When something goes wrong, an error message pops up and the entire export process is aborted. While I can understand this when serious errors occur, I wish there was some sort of timeout-and-retry-before-aborting mechanism in place, especially in the case of not getting a response from Flickr, due to, say, your network connection going out temporarily. It’s a bit frustrating to leave Lightroom running overnight to backup several hundred photos, only to wake up in the morning and finding out that the export process aborted after the 10th image.

But again, a very solid plugin overall and I highly recommend it. And while it started as just a backup tool, I’ve begun to use it for publishing my public photos to Flickr as well. Based on subjective experience (I don’t plan to test for actual numbers), it seems as though Uploadr throttles the upload speed, with Jeffrey’s plugin pushing photos to Flickr at least three times faster, a speed boost which is more than welcome.

But about three weeks into my stay in Taiwan, I realized that the time on my Olympus C-5060 was completely wrong, being off by some 15 hours and 40 minutes, rather than the normal 16 hour time difference. Edit Capture Time didn’t seem to offer such fine tuning, only allowing the user to change all photos to one specific time, or by a set number of hours. It turns out that the “Adjust to a specified date and time” option is a bit misleading, and is, in fact, what I was looking for. When selecting multiple photos, the time you see in the Edit Capture Time tool is of the one photo that is the focus of that selection. When you change the time of this photo, all other photos in the selection have their capture time shifted appropriately, and are not all set to the same time as one is led to believe.
