[digikam] [Bug 366247] Digikam writes metadata to some files only not every one

--- Comment #14 from wildcowboy  ---
I just found out that this bug still exists.
I have been sorting pictures using Geeqie and noticed that some pictures I
facetagged in digiKam do not have keywords. Sure enough when I opened same
images in digiKam the People tag showed up in the Tags tree but not in Edit
Metadata menu (Ctrl-Shift-M)
Latest 5.5 appimage on Linux Mint 18.1

I think so. If the issue occurs again I will let you know.

There is no settings for that, but with current 5.4.0 pre release, we use last
Exiv2 0.26-svn shared library which is not released and introduce more than 200
bugfixes. This can explain the difference. Exiv2 is the low level library used
to play with metadata (xmp sidecar files included).

Gilles,
I just checked the last version on 3 different folders and the issue did not
appear. By the way, I am pretty sure I used to get keywords like
"Events|holiday" written in metadata but now I am seeing only "holiday". Is
there a setting in digikam for that? Could it make a difference?

Here not to reproduce with a Windows VM and a real Windows machine. If you are
using an antivirus program, you can disable it for testing?

--- Comment #6 from wildcowboy  ---
I have played with the files for a while and here is what I have noticed.
- digikam is unable to save any metadata to some certain images. I have tried
both digikam 4.14 in linux and 5.0.0 in windows. I have tried to play with NTFS
security settings for the files. I have tried adding / removing tags, ratings,
captions, titles, etc.
nothing worked...

but

as soon as I opened the same folder/file in picasa and added a tag, e.g. "test"
digikam got back the ability to save changes into the file. So when I clicked
on "write metadata to file" it deleted the "test" tag added in picasa and wrote
tags, ratings, captions, etc. that are in digikam database.

another thing

when I do all the same but not in picasa but in file properties in windows file
explorer the result is very similar but digikam can't delete the tag "test"
assigned in the file explorer. Digikam will add other tags, ratings, captions,
etc. and it will react on changes but it won't touch the tag "test". The only
way to delete it is to do so in file explorer.

Getting frustrated now. I guess I should try storing my pictures in a different
file system but I am afraid to lose the data. Or maybe I should try doing DAM
on a proper linux machine but again I am afraid to lose the data plus not
everything I normally do with my files can be done in linux

I just looked at other folders in my collection and the result is the same -
only some files have tags actually saved in metadata. Major feature is broken
now for me.

Since windows explorer reads metadata I am expecting to see there the tags I
added in digikam

Could you walk me through on what should I do here please. I have never heard
of "XMP metadata tags viewer" and never used "showfoto" either. I did open the
last one though but I could not figure out how to make it showing tags

I am not sure I understood you fully. 
Digikam is not asking you whether to use all processor cores or work on a
single core when you click on "sync" icon in thumbbar or select all files, go
to "item" menu then "write metadata to selected images" .
There is a checkbox for it in the menu "tools" - "maintenance" but digikam
usually crashes on my computer if I check the box so I stopped using it and
normally leave it unchecked.

And you expect to see Windows explorer to give right metadata ?
You must check on image metadata as well. Look in XMP metadata tags viever in
digiKam or Showfoto for details (do not use tags filter here).

Here is a screenshot of the folder in windows file explorer.

Every single file is supposed to have a tag "zoo". 

I wish I could show tags as a column in digikam table view. You would see the
difference between file explorer and digikam side by side then.
