google-photos-plus's Issues

License

Hi,

could you please add a LICENSE file to the repo?`

Thanks :)

Doesn't look like it works for me

Hi there,

Nice work on creating this but, in my testing, this does not seem to work for me. In fact, the photos that Photos+ is downloading appear to be of a lower quality (at least according to the metrics). I've also noticed that Photos+ is stripping out a lot of useful JPEG metadata. Take a look at my outputs below.

In this example, orig is the standard version using the Download button from Google Photos. better is the apparent higher quality version from the Photos+ download button.
Notice the File size and JPEG Quality fields.

# jhead command gets the JPEG metadata
$> jhead IMG_1234_orig.JPG > metadata_orig.txt
$> jhead IMG_1234_better.JPG > metadata_better.txt

$> diff -y metadata_orig.txt metadata_better.txt
File name    : IMG_1234_orig.JPG		      |	File name    : IMG_1234_better.JPG
File size    : 7546221 bytes				      |	File size    : 2967754 bytes
File date    : 2019:01:01 01:23:45			      |	File date    : 2019:01:01 01:23:45

Flash used   : No					      |	JPEG Quality : 90
Focal length : 18.0mm  (35mm equivalent: 29mm)		      <
CCD width    : 22.68mm					      <
Exposure time: 0.0020 s  (1/500)			      <
Aperture     : f/8.0					      <

Whitebalance : Auto					      <

GPS Latitude : <redacted>					      <
GPS Longitude: <redacted>					      <
JPEG Quality : 97					      <

Likewise, the filesize is much smaller in the "better" version.

$> du -h IMG_1234_orig.JPG IMG_1234_better.JPG 
7.2M	IMG_1234_orig.JPG
2.9M	IMG_1234_better.JPG

Perhaps something has since changed in the way Google Photos handles downloads? Apologies - I did not get to try this extension when it was first released, so I have no point of comparison.

Best wishes,
Aaron
