[digiKam-users] Digikam 6.4.0 do not support XMP sidecar from Mac OS Photos ?

[Alan H]

I am running 6.3.0 on Windows. I haven't been able to find a compatibility mode setting in the configuration settings. Could you please be more specific about where to find it? Also, does having two xmp files (filename.ext.xmp, filename.xmp)  create problems for other software that processes/reads metadata? Thanks. Alan

This option activates then also write sidecar as BASENAME.xmp, the standard
for digiKam would be BASENAME.EXT.xmp. DigiKam reads both formats
automatically. Further checks for upper case XMP extensions would further
reduce the speed, especially on network drives. In this case we would have to
check for 4 variants. I think we'll leave it in the lower case.
