OK, I think I understand the problem.
What is the recommended workflow, if you have more than one device connected? 
By now I have 6 "cameras" defined and often 3 connected. Cause sometimes HAL 
create a different mountpoint in "/media" I have to readjust the montpoint in 
digiKams camera config dialog. Is it a problem for the database if digiKam 
starts with e.g. 3 instances?

Anyway, this new Solid-thing sound interesting. Maybe its possible to focus 
digiKams needs later in its API conception-phase.

Thanks
