Summary: Let digikam use preview images from raw files for more
speed
Product: digikam
Version: unspecified
Platform: Gentoo Packages
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
ReportedBy: languitar semipol de
Version: (using KDE 3.5.8)
Installed from: Gentoo Packages
Decoding raw images is a process that takes a relatively long time, so browsing through a collection of raw images is slowly. Some cameras (for example Olympus) provide preview images in the raw file that are much easier to read for dcraw. So my suggestion is to use the preview image for initial displaying as long as the real image is being decoded. That would be a great speed up for raw image browsing.
