           Summary: CR2 thumbnails not shown in camera GUI, no exif

          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Camera GUI

        ReportedBy: gerhard kulzer net

Installed from:    Compiled sources
OS:                Linux

In the camera GUI, only jpg file thumbnails are shown and no thumbnails are shown in the cr2 files. This is tested with EOS 350D and 30D.

Furthermore there are no image properties or exif data available when selecting the appropriate sidebars. Once the cr2 are downloaded all is well, thumbnails are visible and exif data is complete.

I presume the two bugs has the same root cause, since the exif data cannot be read, the embedded thumbnail is not available either.

The following error messages are produced in a shell from which digiKam was launched:

digikam: Cannot parse EXIF metadata using Exiv2
digikam: [static Digikam::DImg::FORMAT Digikam::DImg::fileFormat(const QString&)] Failed to open file
digikam: [static Digikam::DImg::FORMAT Digikam::DImg::fileFormat(const QString&)] Failed to open file
