The xmp warning is not the problem.

But it's know that Exiv2 have many problem with video files.

I recommend to not try to scan your huge collection in one time.

Start with a fresh database and add video files by chunks step by step until
crash appear. To goal is to isolate the file which introduce the dysfunction.

After that, report the problem to Exiv2 bugzilla with the identified video file
for investigations. As DK windows installer include current Exiv2 source code,
we can rebuild a DK for windows with last fix from Exiv2.

For your problem with GDB under Windows, if command line version won't to start
digiKam (even if it work on my VM with Windows 7), you need to open a console
and go to the directory where gdb and digikam excutable are installed (it's the
same dir).

After that it's simple. Look the generic page for details :
