Summary: Digikam freezes completely if too many pictures are
processed in the Adjust Time & Date plugin
Product: digikam
Version: 7.4.0
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Plugin-Generic-TimeAdjust

SUMMARY
I noticed that digikam 7.4 (stable version) freezes completely if too many
photos are processed in the Adjust Time and Date plugin.
A bit of context: one of my relatives didn't adjust the camera date on some of
her trips, so around 3000 pictures had incorrect dates. I thought of selecting
all of them, using the Adjust Time & Date plugin and correct the date by adding
the number of days and hours necessary. However, if I selected more than
200-300 pictures at a time, digikam just froze in the middle of the process. It
is something gradual, at about 170 pictures, digikam shows some stutters every
now and then but complete successfully, but at more than 200, it freezes at
some point and has to be force closed.
The pictures were taken with a SONY ILCE-5000 camera (although that's probably
irrelevant) and take up from 5 to 6MB each. I was just writing the date to the
"EXIF:original" timestamp. That was in a windows laptop with a SSD drive, and
everything (database and pictures) are stored locally.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select more than 200 pictures, 5MB each.
2. Use the Time and Date plugin to adjust the date.
3. Click on Apply
OBSERVED RESULT
The process starts, but it stutters and finally freezes the whole program.
EXPECTED RESULT
The process should continue until it finishes.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
