           Summary: Adding a directory containing over 199 files adds
                    x-199 files
           Product: k3b
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Mageia RPMs
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED

          Priority: NOR
         Component: general

SUMMARY
Adding a directory containing over 199 files adds x-199 files


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Create a data project
2. "Add to Project" a folder containing 217 files

OBSERVED RESULT
18 files are added.  No error is produced.

EXPECTED RESULT
217 files should be added.  The number seems to be x-199--if I add three extra
dummy files, so it contains 220 files, 21 files are now added.  I tried it on
another directory and the same thing happened, also adding x-199 files. 

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Mageia Linux 8.0.  K3b version 20.12.0 (which is not listed above under
Version:)  

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
No existing bug matches this but I did find a similar bug mentioned elsewhere
at
https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/630966/k3b-only-imports-part-of-data

The workaround is to select all the files and add them, rather than trying to
add the folder.

This is a serious bug because it can silently cause data loss.
