Well, two things:

a) It's only IPTC IIMv4, it doesn't fully support IPTC4XMP...

b) on files that have had their metadata touched by IDimager (another IPTC and XMP metadata editor), when I try to open them with Photo Info, I get the following message from Photo Info:

"A file system I/O error occurred. Please check that files are not locked and that you have appropriate permissions in the folder"

I also notice that even though I select a single file, if I get this error, then Photo Info reports that I have "1,414 or 2,304 files selected", which is clearly nonsense.

Photo Info version 1.0 needs to progress a bit before I'll continue to use it...
