Currently I'm using gpsbabel and gpsphotolinker respectively to pull data from my globalsat dg-100 and batch geotag my raw CR2s. However, and as you also mentioned, gpsphotolinker can be a bit unstable sometimes and it's slow every time. This is still a two step process, though. Sometimes I need to manually tagging the odd batch. I do it with google earth and geotagger, but it's a bit of a boring process. I'll have a closer look at geophoto. I dismissed it because I figured it was specifically geared towards iphoto/apperture users (which I'm not). Hopefully I can reduce my toolset to two tools, of geophoto is good enough for what I need. Thanks again for this informative survey! Cheers, Pedro. Thanks for a really nice survey!

This problem occured in v1.48 because of an error in the start script. David, it looks like you’re not using the latest version (v1.52).
