Hi Maik,
Thanks again for your previous response and helpful suggestions. I wanted to
provide a bit more detail based on your points:
1. **Collection Settings:** Regarding adding "C:\Users\Tony\Pictures" as a
single collection, unfortunately, that wouldn't be suitable for my workflow.
That root directory contains numerous temporary and working folders used by
various photo editing software, which I wouldn't want included in my main
digiKam albums. I specifically add individual folders that contain my finished
images.
2. **Hidden Files:** In the specific folder I'm having trouble with ("HDR
Merge"), I can confirm there are no hidden files. The folder currently contains
2 JPG files, 100 TIF files, and 1 empty subfolder.
3. **The Core Issue:** The problem seems to be that digiKam is failing to
recognise the *new* TIF files that have been added to this "HDR Merge" folder
*since* it was initially added to digiKam. The original files that were in the
folder when I first set it up appeared fine, but any TIF files added
subsequently are not detected, even after refreshing the album/collection. As
mentioned before, they don't appear in the database either.
Do you have any further ideas on why newly added photo files specifically
within an already monitored folder might not be detected?
Thanks again for your continued assistance.
Best regards,
Tony
