           Summary: Wish: search offline collections (e.g. removable
                    medias)
           Product: digikam
           Version: 0.10.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: raphink at gmail.com


Version:           0.10.0 (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

With the new multiple collections feature in Digikam 0.10.0, I was able to add
quite a few DVDs to my digikam collections. 

However, I can only list the pictures on them if I insert the DVD _before_
starting digikam. This is not very useful, since I might not know where to find
the picture before inserting the DVD.

It would be great if all the search options were available for offline
collections. Maybe Digikam could store the metadata (including thumbnails) in
the local db so they can be used to perform searches, and then prompt the user
to insert the removable media to see the pictures (e.g. "Please insert
"DVD3-2009" to see this picture").
