--- Comment #2 from fotograaf <fotogr...@mail.farside.nl> --- I am using the Linux appimage, not snap. I see what you mean however, when adding tags this does not seem to work this way. They can be added with far less diskreads&writes. And at the end of the day, geolocation data is also just a tag. They seem to work different, tags and geolocation. It's like the tagging says 'ok, I know this file, add this tag and its XMP data, just write it in the XMP'. And when Geolocation is started, it's like it's a completely new program which has not seen these files ever before - and therefore has to read them from scratch. Again, in the main window when you tag a file, it's not completely re-read. So there the necessary information to perform tagging is present. Only the Geolocation module acts like it does not get this info. Extra info: It's much faster when files already have a geolocation. It doesn't read the entire file first. Debug: This is for a single file. Is it me or does it read the metadata (which the tagging module already has) 3 times?? ^[[34mDigikam::DMetadata::load^[[0m: Loading metadata with "Exiv2" backend from "/media/erin_only/home/Photos/Mobile/PhoneCamera/Camera/IMG_20140717_093012.jpg" ^[[34mDigikam::DMetadata::load^[[0m: Loading metadata with "Exiv2" backend from "/media/erin_only/home/Photos/Mobile/PhoneCamera/Camera/IMG_20140717_093012.jpg" ^[[34mDigikam::DMetadata::load^[[0m: Loading metadata with "Exiv2" backend from "/media/erin_only/home/Photos/Mobile/PhoneCamera/Camera/IMG_20140717_093012.jpg" ^[[34mDigikam::MetaEngine::save^[[0m: MetaEngine::metadataWritingMode 1 ^[[34mDigikam::MetaEngine::save^[[0m: Will write XMP sidecar for file "IMG_20140717_093012.jpg" ^[[34mDigikam::ItemLister::listSearch^[[0m: Search result: 33973 ^[[34mDigikam::MetaEngine::Private::saveOperations^[[0m: wroteComment: false ^[[34mDigikam::MetaEngine::Private::saveOperations^[[0m: wroteEXIF: true ^[[34mDigikam::MetaEngine::Private::saveOperations^[[0m: wroteIPTC: true ^[[34mDigikam::MetaEngine::Private::saveOperations^[[0m: wroteXMP: true ^[[34mDigikam::MetaEngine::save^[[0m: Metadata for file "IMG_20140717_093012.jpg" written to XMP sidecar. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
