[Digikam-users] batching dng to jpg conversions

[Gilles Caulier]

Batch convert use ImageMagick in background

Converting DNG to JPEG, IM will interpret DNG as TIFF file, no more, because
it use libtiff... DNG is a TIFF/EP file format, using a reduced version of
image (thumbnail) in first image TIFF data set. The real image is in second
one...

To process DNG to JPG conversion in batch, use Batch RAW converter.
