I would also prefer metadata to be stored in files, if only to save a problem the next time that I move photo programs.
More important than my "me too", I have an additional use-case. We currently have a server with our shared photos and we access them over the network. Any changes to a local database would not be picked up by the other machine. This would also make it slower to update file-based tags, but a background task should be okay. One additional thought that is probably worth considering is an option to strip out some of the tags on export, though I can't immediately think of too many sensitive tags. It may not be a bad idea generally, though, if people start uploading "picture of my garden" photos to the internet with GPS tags (inserted automatically by some cameras). -- Store/read tags inside photos https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/579804 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Registry Administrators, which is the registrant for Shotwell. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~registry Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~registry More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
