Bug ID: 389619 Summary: digikam does not read from sidecars for video/mp4 Product: digikam Version: 5.8.0 Platform: openSUSE RPMs OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Metadata-Sidecar Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: aegor...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- This is continuation of this thread: http://digikam.1695700.n4.nabble.com/Re-read-metadata-from-a-sidecar-for-mp4-td4704976.html I have recorded two videos. In the first video I am adding tags, rating, gps coordinates to a video in my collection. As you can see everything works just fine. digikam adds the information to the database as well as to the xmp sidecar. Rating, tags and GPS icon are seen in thumbnails view. https://youtu.be/Nef3VvWqozc In the second video I removed digikamrc as well as the database files and added a video file with an existing xmp sidecar to a new database. Neither tags/rating nor gps logo can be seen in thumbnails view. Trying to 'Reread metadata from Image' only shows an error. If I try to add geolocation once again the error 'Failed to open file' pops up. https://youtu.be/67pcOJj_3RM So basically there is no way to import an information from an existing sidecar back to the database. Even though the box 'Read from sidecars' checked in Settings - Metadata - Sidecars. I thought once the box is checked digiKam should read from sidecars automatically. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
