<p class="MsoNormal">Ok, this is a bit complex, so I am not sure if I'll miss something.<br>
<br>
Basically you want to be able to interoperate between ON1 photo editor, and<br>
Digikam, and only using sidecar files.<br>
<br>
As far as I know, .on1 sidecars are exclusive to the ON1 photo editor, so I<br>
don't think Digikam is able to read or produce them. Apparently, .on1 files<br>
not only include metadata (like keywords and dates) but also information<br>
about the editions done on the photo. So if you edit some keywords in<br>
digikam, store them in a .xmp, and then ON1 reads only from the .on1 file,<br>
it won't see any changes.<br>
<br>
I am not sure about the correct blocks that jpg and RAW photos should or<br>
should not. I know that digikam uses a bunch of redundant keyword tags in<br>
order to be compatible with lots of other picture managers, and usually that<br>
shouldn't be a problem, so I wouldn't be worried if you see a JPG and RW2<br>
tag block (as long as there isn't contradictory information).<br>
<br>
Moreover, the information of the XMP sidecar can also be embedded in the JPG<br>
picture itself (but not the RAW, usually), so digikam and other softwares<br>
can read that information without the need of a xmp sidecar. If there is<br>
contradictory information between both, I am not sure to which one Digikam<br>
will give priority. <br>
<br>
Can you attach us an example of a picture and its sidecars (.xmp and .on1)<br>
so I can see and try for myself?<br>
<br>
