Problem reading a series UIDs

Okay will try that!

BWT, just for completeness : illegal tag (0800, 0005) is a typo, i looked inside data it has. Somebody inserted it instead (0008,0005) “Specific Character Set”

Removing tags in that range fixed my problem, thank you for sharing your solution!
For problems in the future, how do you recommend I inspect a dicom’s metadata and spot buggy tags?

Oh, not sure, removing and editing tags is unusual. Good metadata viewer/editor might be helpful.

@dzenanz BTW, might be interesting - GDCM always processes overlays, curves and icon images

gdcmPixmapReader.cxx

I think that most 2D DICOM viewers also allow viewing tags. There are many viewers, try a few and pick one. You could also try a command-line utility dcmdump.
