FastPhotoTagger ?

I use it along with DT, but certainly for much less ambitious objectives
than yours, so I'm not sure...

I write to this list very seldom, and that is now because I just had to
create a filter on postmas...@gatworks.com.

Having seen the recent burden he brought to this list, I'd dare say
being recommended by him would have been a shame.

I've dropped macs for a couple years now, but reading the above you seem
to have tried to launch Darktable from a mounted volume that may be the
archive you downloaded?

If so, you may retry copying the Darktable app on your HD before. (sorry

Re: [darktable-user] DT3.2.1, NVidia, Linux kernel 5.8 vs 5.9 & OpenCL

[Hervé Sainct]

Here,

Lenovo Thinkpad P53, GPU Nvidia Quadro T2000

Darktable 3.2.1-3 (installed, not snap)

on Debian Sid

with the recent NVidia drivers, 450.80.02

and kernel 5.8 (OpenCL works) or with kernel 5.9 (Open CL doesn't work)

The difference with/without OpenCL is visible as soon as a raw image
reaches some dozen Mb even for simple corrections.

Re: [darktable-user] Dynamic Range

[Hervé Sainct]

I for one only work with raws and use to adjust dynamics with the Curves
tool, where you can see the RGB ranges expanding when you shift the
controls (I also can do this on a selected zone only).

But there are plenty of other controls and measures that I don't know.

What exactly do you mean by 'dynamic range measurement'?

If xnviewmp works fine why not just using it?

I want to also do the ratings and labels but somehow I haven't
figured a way of importing these from xnviewmp to dt.

I'm going for a while, so I'd like to be done with the dam before
coming back home.

FWIW, I use FastPhotoTagger as a quick initial sorter/tagger; it writes 
directly inside the EXIF data (not creating any sidecar file) -I know 
from a DT point of view this is a terrible sin, but I find this very 
helpful : any search engine becomes terribly efficient (e. g. Recoll), 
people you give your pics get them tagged too...
The only draback in FastPhotoTagger is actually linked to that : when 
upgrading the Exifs the filedates are changed.
This sometimes is a concern, but a ferocious exiv2 rename -T *.* solves 
it...

In darktable you never have to save anything. The tags are however not written
into the original image files but into XMP sidecars.


Tobias

Thank you Tobias!

So the tags wouldn't actually be exif tags, unless I then process an 
image and save it?

[darktable-user] simultaneous (batch?) photo tagging in DarkTable?

[Hervé Sainct]

Hello all,

Being a recent switcher from OSX to Linux, I must say I am delighted 
with Darktable which rapidly became my mail photo process manager.


With my recent (poor) understanding of Darktable there is almost a 
single issue for me in the process : given a series of pictures, I 
cannot find how I could _exif-tag all of them at a time_, with the same 
series of tags, associated with a given event for instance.


At this moment I am using for this the java app 'FastPhotoTagger', which 
indeed is quite fine, but I'd like to know if I could do the same 
straignt within Darktable?


Thank you and all the best for this excellent app!!

Hervé
