To answer your question:
/"But why do you want to write an xmp file against the jpeg... Dt is
useful to treat raw files! Xmp files are useful to preview raw files in
Dt!"//
/
This is because the exported jpgs are the ones that will be used e.g. to
send to others, upload to a photo album, etc. These are the images the
original raws of which I have "treated" with DT.
For one series of shoots, I do not need to work on *all* pictures. My
camera produces both raw images *and* the corresponding jpg. When the
latter is good enough, there is no task for DT. Consequently, for a
picture that is already good, I don't want an xmp file littering around.
Such a default .xmp is misleading: if one would create a jpg-image
using the info from such a default generated xmp, this generated
'default jpg" is (very) different from the camera generated one. Which
is understandable, as the camera has its built-in knowledge how to
create the jpg, which is not necessarily the same as the default actions
DT would do.

have not touched/edited.
I don''t think DT is currently providing this in a convenient way. It
can write xmp files automatically for *all* images, but that is
too much.
I answer to your affirmation!
But why do you want to write an xmp file against the jpeg... Dt is
useful to treat raw files! Xmp files are useful to preview raw files
in Dt!

Sorry Dimitry, but how does this help me implementing the export
of xmp-files of modified images?

In the module import, there is "parameters" & the "ignore jpegs".
When you export, you can choose the destination. Read the manual.

I might do that, but I am considering implementing it myself.
I am not very familiar with the darktable internals (yet),
Perhaps somebody from this dev-list kan give some suggestions
how to tackle the problem.

Hi Martin,
Sure, but that is not what I am looking for. I don't want
unnecessary being being generated.
Kind Regards,

Hi,
My camera creates an image both in raw format (Nikon, nef) and a jpg.
When the camera-produced jpg is good enough, I just want to keep it, leaving it
untouched by DT. No xmp-file needed or even desired. For the others pictures,
I use DT to process the the raw image and export a new jpg, overwriting the
original camera-produced jpg. For those pictures I want the xmp file.

I don''t think DT is currently providing this in a convenient way. It
can write xmp files automatically for *all* images, but that is too much.
It is possible to achieve this selective xmp-export manually by first
selecting in lightroom the 'untouched' images, inverting this selection and then
choose "write sidecar files' in the history stack menu. This however, is
cumbersome, tedious and error prone. I am looking for a more robust and automated
way to achieve the same.
It would make sense I think to write an xmp file together with the
export, So I was thinking if I could add this option to the code.
I would value some comments or feedback if this option would be
worthwhile to pursue.
Kind Regards,
Bertwim
