According to this issue comment, "this application will not be able to support GS1_128 barcodes" (as zxing is currently unable to generate this type).

I have a (UK-issued) Nectar card and when I scan the card using "Capture card", the generated barcode does not match the barcode on my Nectar card. Comparing the 2 images to those created by online barcode generator websites, it appears as though loyalty-card-locker is creating a "Code-128" barcode while the real (scanned) card is a "GS1-128 (UCC/EAN-128)" barcode.

Is there any way round this? Many thanks.

(The next time that I'm in store, I'll see whether any of the other barcodes shown under "Edit card" work. Hopefully, I won't arouse suspicion by futzing with their checkout machine for 10 minutes! 😆😆😆)

edit: I've just found https://stackoverflow.com/a/34538369/3499840 ("ZXing does support GS1-128...")
