--- Comment #16 from Tim-Philipp Müller <t.i.m at zen.co.uk> ---
The problem is with g_convert / iconv:

gstexiftag.c:816:write_exif_ascii_tag: Failed to convert exif tag to ascii:
0x8298 - my string. Error: Conversion from character set 'utf8' to 'latin1' is
not supported

There are two issues here:

 a) the string is pure ascii already, there's nothing to convert at all (we can
special-case this, which would at least fix the unit test)

 b) we should really write all our EXIF tag strings as UTF-8 instead of Latin1
