basically the newer pictures on all updates phones are not returning exif data
the same pictures are returning data as expected on other exif tools / software used to visualize / parse them
it started one by one with the new version of firmware/software for all Samsung phones in the last past few months.
it might be related to the fact Kodi is using version 2.1.2+matrix.0

I have installed version 3.0 (from ZIP)
the issue persist
attached a zip file with a htmldump form 3 images -
20231027xxxx - device 1 old firmware - correct reading by exifread script
20240317xxxx - device 1 new firmware - incorrect reading by exifread script
20240318xxxx - device 2 new firmware - incorrect reading by exifread script
exif-trouble.zip
apparently the header is different and it is not handled correctly by the script
