[digiKam-users] writing sidecar files configuration

[Gilles Caulier]

Hi,

Read only file are video or RAW files where metadata can be read, but not
write, at let with Exiv2 library used by digiKam. So using a sidecar file
near the original file permit to play with metadata without to touch RAW or
Video.
