How can I apply further data > (e.g. the modified fotos) to darktable. you can import recursively (there's a checkbox for that if you're importing with the dt gui). may i ask what kind of pictures that is? all jpg? different raws? recursive import can be very slow on big collections and be very frustrating if there is one corrupted picture that crashes the whole process. > What I'm searching for is a shell-command like: > > darktable-import --filmroll <xxx> --modified <yyy> --geotag <zzz> <list of > files> no clue what your options there suggest in terms of functionality. you can call darktable with a folder as argument, it will be imported. cheers, jo ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
