Hi,

with digikam 2.9.0 on Microsoft Windows 7 Pro 64 bits and XP 32 bits I have big
problems with a medium sized pictures collection (about 22000 pictures, 700
albums, with CR2 and JPG files). When I first start digiKam, I give it the root
of the collection, it then scans the content for the first time and fills the
database (SQLite). But once started, digiKam displays nothing, whatever the
album I select (yet everything is OK in the database : the photos have a status
of 1, the albums are there, the pictures are well related to an album, etc.).
If I try to leave digiKam, I see that it stays in memory (probably a crash
because the process dont seem to do anything). If I kill all processes (digiKam
and KDE) and then restart digiKam, at worst digiKam crashes at best it shows
nothing like the first time. If I close again all processes and that I move
admit half the collection apart from the collection path and I start digiKam
again, it displays all the images well and naturally creates the thumbnails in
the second file database ... (except for the files I moved outside the root of
the collection of course). I also tried with another collection of pictures and
had the same results...

If it is a bug, it is really a critical one to me as digiKam becomes unusable.

Laurent.
