smb is slow and you have quite a large collection being imported. I would *guess* that dt has not had time to generate the previews yet. perhaps a better plan would have been to download the images to the smb drive or via nfs/sshfs first and then to import to dt. but that would probably still have been much slower than a local drive. also possible to download to a local drive, import into dt and then move the images to the remote drive and reimport. -- (paka)Patrick Shanahan Plainfield, Indiana, USA @ptilopteri http://en.opensuse.org openSUSE Community Member facebook/ptilopteri Photos: http://wahoo.no-ip.org/piwigo paka @ IRCnet freenode ____________________________________________________________________________ darktable user mailing list to unsubscribe send a mail to darktable-user+unsubscr...@lists.darktable.org
