Hello.!<br>I'm writing to report a strange problem. (using digikam 1.0 on latest beta kde, running gentoo linux. not using kde wm though.)<br>There are several reiserfs partitions on my usb drive and one of them was almost full (only 0.5GB remaining). So I moved within digikam (not using mv) a folder to another collection on another partition. It is 27GB and 4K+ pictures.<br>
These partitions are mounted with mount and custom rules (and digikam can't recognise them as external storage and (why?) it takes ages (about 6-7min for only 60K photos) to start, even on a fresh quit without any modifications to the disks). <br>
Well... 3hrs later, the transfer was completed (with mv I get far far far higher speeds of course). One problem was that around 1/5th of my jpgs were showing wrong dates and no/partial tag/rating. Re-reading metadata from image(s) worked because the info was stored in the tags... The other problem is that most my nef (over 1K) lost their tags. Because I don't want digikam to do bad things to them, I don't want tags written inside them. In case there is such a problem, every nef has a small jpg (from camera) next to it with tags stored inside. I could probably write a script to update the database for all the nef+jpg according to the jpg tags... <br>
Third problem : the folder images disapeared in both source and destination folders. (most sources folders still contained non pictures elements such as panorama data, rawstudio data,...) And this is a pain because it's a lot of folder picture to re-set.<br>
<br>These are not important issues for me but I wanted at least to tell about it... No such problems occured when moving a folder within the same partition (or collection ?)<br><br>Since it's almost the first time I post to this list, let me say thank you for this piece of software.<br>
