rating missing in thumbnails

[frederic chaume]

Hi Maik

I'm using sidecar for Raw only

when I change the rating of the raw file in DXO , I have to "read 
metadata from file to database" to get it updated in DK. That was 
already the case in DK8.3 .

When I generate a Jpeg from a 2* Raw file with DXO, the generated Jpeg 
is also a 2* rating but in DK 8.4 it requires to be refreshed using 
"read metadata from file to database" to make the rating visible while 
in DK8.3 it was directly shown with 2* rating.

I tried setting the "rescan file when files are modified" , but it 
doesn't change anything.

in the advanced metadata setup the rating namespaces are (ordered)
xmp.xmp.rating
xmp/acdsee.rating
xmp.microsoftphoto.rating
exif.image.rating
exif.imapage.ratingpercent
iptc.application2.urgency

I didn't change anything recently (and it was working well before) and I 
don't know if this has an impact for jpeg, but wondering as I'm using 
now exiftool it doesn't require some update ?
