SUMMARY
Following the bug entry 427907 where Maik exlained me what the problems were
with import from picasa3 where digikam does not correctly take the faces out of
the metadata i went to try to import part of the photos I have (more than
600Gbyte, about 150'000 photos.
The original scanning took Digikam almost 24hours without being able to open
digicam...just wait time. So first comment here. I do not have an issue with
this but probably many users that just want to try digikam will be scared away
from the SW and go for ACDSEE or something else....
the reason why is that it blocked my computer for a full day (every operation
was slower on the computer and it has ssd disk and good processor): So could
you not improve it and do the scanning in the background like PICASA3 does. So
at least the people can browse their photos immediatly. User Experience would
be 100 times better).
Next when the scan was finished, again NO Face rectangles were recognised at
all out of the PICASA3 faces. All the names of the people were in the list of
persons but no face rectangles at all. So same as my first experience.
I had to reread the metadata for each photo.
This was my input for this big bunch of photos.
But basically, making Digikam do the scanning and then face recognition work in
the background would make it a great SW like Picasa3 was.
