Bug ID: 469248
Summary: Digikam XMP Sidecar Format has Changed
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version: 8.0.0
Platform: Ubuntu
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Metadata-Xmp
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: b4yf823ap56y457945ty4...@protonmail.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
***
Previously the image name format and sidecar XMP format was:
image.jpg
image.xmp
Since I updated from 7 t 8 it has now changed to:
image.jpg
image.jpg.xmp
While I don't think either is right or wrong, I now need to find a way to
rename 140,000 sidecar files, I would appreciate some method to choose the
format moving forward, or to have both be supported.
***
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have an image named "image.jpg" and "image.xmp" in Digikam 7.
2. Import Metadata and it will find the accompanying sidecar file correctly.
3. Update to Digikam 8 and add a new "image.jpg" and "image.xmp" duo, Digikam
won't find any accompanying sidecar file.
OBSERVED RESULT
Digikam doesn't detect any XMP sidecar files in this name format.
EXPECTED RESULT
Digikam detects and imports metadata from XMP sidecar files that match the
image name without the extension.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
