Picard with SMALT?

[gaffa]

I think I have encountered this problem - if I remember correctly I think the problem is that SMALT puts "unknown" as the value for the SO tag and that this value is not allowed by Picard. I think it worked fine after I changed these tags.

picard => samtools sort =>

Has anyone ever tried to use Picard tools with SMALT? Specifically AddOrReplaceReadGroups and MarkDuplicates. Here is the error I get when trying to add read groups:
