i'm used to zbarcam, which also had the irritating attribute of adding a linebreak after every qr code output, so reading a bunch of binary qr codes would output them interspersed with linebreaks. On Sat, Oct 17, 2020 at 6:11 PM Stefan Claas <spam.trap.mailing.lists@gmail.com> wrote:

If you are using zbar, and the data contains 8-bit characters, zbar 0.10 does not decode this correctly. you need to compile zbar from the mercurial sources: https://sourceforge.net/p/zbar/code/ci/default/tree/ `hg clone http://hg.code.sf.net/p/zbar/code zbar-code` to get the content out right. but maybe you are using some other processor than zbar.
Thanks for the info, will try out tomorrow.
