In that case it should be possible to reload them into the db by using the relevant Image or Album menu item.<br>

Unfortunately, with an upgrade I lost existing face tags (or more<br>

says face tag a/b/c but I don't have it in the digicam face hierarchy.<br>

Any idea how to debug? Any idea how to import face data from the meta<br>
