XMP file not taken in account
Hello,
I believe I am facing a bug during my workflow for importing a new folder. Some
.xmp files are taken in account and same other NOT. For years I always worked
that way without issues until January this year after installing your 8.2
version. It was woking well in the previous version.
I read all your documentation (great documentation, over 1000 pages, very
detailled) and I cannot understand what is wrong in my settings or in my
process.
First, let explain my workflow for importing a new folder.
1- By using the windows copy tool, I copy the ARW (Sony raw files) from my
camera to a window folder.
2- By using GEOSETTER, I insert geolocalisation into .XMP files. I like to use
GEOSETTER because I can retrieve the country, the state (region in french) the
city and the sublocation that I frequently use as search axis en Digikam.
3- I launch Digikam and in order to read the new folder content, I run Tool >
Maintenance and I select the following options
- Album : Only the main root of the new folder for performance reasons.
- Sync metadata and database : Direction : From image image metadata to
DataBase. So far, I believe I am using the default settings. Generally
speaking, I am using WAL and NOT the lazzy synchronization as you mention in
your documentation.
All the maintenance process works well without any warning or error messages.
4- When I run Tag > Tag manager, I can see only a part of the new tags created
by GEOSETTER.
You will find in attachement one example of the .xmp file which does not create
new tags (Paris 01). When I compare one of the xmp files taken / NOT taken in
account, I cannot see any stucture diffence. Remember that all .xmp files are
created by the same application, during the same run .
I have to mention that I have recently installed you 8.2 version. Before in 8.0
version all was working fine.
Tell me if you need other informations from side to help to understand and
correct this concern.
Tell me also if there is way of working for not facing this issue.
I am a french native, so sorry for my poor english level.
If you prefer, we can continu either in french or english as you prefer.
Best Regards.
