Software is up to date. Calif told UK/Ireland that the change was deliberate. Removal of compression for piccies.
I looked at batch compression but to do that I need to keep two sets of records or files of many thousands of pictures. On my master set. I have enough trouble organising one clean set, so I don't want to have to manage two sets.
My only point is that I wish they had made it public. They did not do so. As a regular punter I lose out due to their secrecy.
