The version 11 displays the size of images to be uploaded in "mb" where "m" is the "milli" prefix and "b" an unknown unit.

The unit symbol for the byte is specified in IEC 80000-13, IEEE 1541 and the Metric Interchange Format as the upper-case character "B". The SI standard prefix for 1.000.000 is "M" and the megabytes unit should therefore be written "MB" in the Piwigo UI.

PS: In systems based on power of 2, the standard unit is MiB for 1.024x1.024 bytes.

Hi @EddyLB

Can you add a screenshot so that I clearly understand where this "mb" is written?

Frankly I really don't care if it is capitalized or not... sure one should adhere to standards but this is a bit ludicrous.
I suggest you join me in getting US and UK to stop using inches, pounds, stones etc...

@ddtddt , why the strings 'tb', 'gb', 'mb', 'kb' are not translated in themes/default/js/plugins/plupload/i18n? (except in French)
