Good day all,<br> I have been trying to use digikam 0.10.0 to manage the images on my file<br>server, connected to my laptop by fast-ethernet, using nfs mounted folders.<br>But,<br> There are a number of things that are making it basically unusable at
<br>this stage:<br><br>On startup digikam setsup inotify watches on all directories. There are<br>many, many directories so this takes about five minutes. There seem to be<br>less images tahtn I thought, maybee 15-20K.<br>
Is there some other way. As I suggested in a wish, it would be good if<br>it could be set that digikam didnt monitor certain directories.<br>Rescanning the images takes a few hours....<br><br>Thumbnails take forever to load/generate, and when in an album view, even
<br>a modest sized folder with ~200 images the system slows to a crawl with<br>100% cpu use. The machine is getting on, 2.4Ghz P4 with 512M ram.<br> If I scroll down, then up again, the thumbnails at the beginning of the
<br>folder have become grey and take a few minutes to become icons again.<br>With GQview which is what Ime migrating from, I dont experience high<br>cpu/mem overheads to display thumbnails<br><br><br>Crashing... Digikam crashes if multiple images are selected, then right
<br>clicked on. It crashes sometimes when modifying tags.<br><br>Exif Rotation... What a great feature! I love it...<br> BUT<br> If I modify the exif rotation, then at a later point add comments or<br>tags, the exif orientation is reverted somehow.. weird.
<br><br>There are a few more things that I think would make digikam even more<br>fantastic, do I append them here or start a new thread?<br><br>Thank you.<br><br>Jasper</blockquote><div><br>Just one word : digiKam 0.10.0
still in alpha stage. It's not yet ready to use in production...<br><br>There are a lots of things to test/debug (:=)))<br><br>Best<br><br>Gilles Caulier<br></div><br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">
