Hi Johannes,

Thanks a lot for your help. 

I have checked it and I'm writing to the right file after reading the data from
 it. According to what I see, only the modifications made on the current 
branch are saved, even after applying the delta to the right image file.

One question is: does it matter if I save the whole file, replacing the old with 
this new one? Or do I need to open the old one and modify its content?

Thanks again!
