But don't worry, there's no hidden agendas. This permission is required for xIFr to be able to read meta-data in images, no matter which domain they are embedded from. By shift-clicking when selecting xIFr in browser's context-menu, you will force xIFr to look for images larger than a specified size (The size is configurable).

This is in my opinion the most important feature distinguishing xIFr from other Exif-viewers.Īlso, with Deep Search you can avoid overlayered logos and icons. You won't even know if you actually were right-clicking directly on an img element or not.

In 95% of the times, it just works as you expect. But with 'Deep Search' xIFr finds the image you want to see details about, no matter if it is below a layer or is defined as a background-image of another element. Most other Exif viewers for Firefox only works if you can right-click directly on an html img element. It works sooo well - in my own very humble opinion :-) It is probably a matter of personal preferences, but you should really check the 'deep search' feature. Note: If you ain't using a recent version of Firefox supported by latest version of xIFr, there's probably an older version of xIFr supporting your browser.īecause I felt other Exif readers annoyed me or I felt they were missing something. Launch it from the browser's right-click context menu. XIFr is a viewer for EXIF, IPTC and XMP metadata in jpg image files.
