Hello everybody,
during the last days I had a closer look at my library database because
of incorrect white balances of old images because of changed defaults. I
could solve the white balance problem but during the research I noticed
that about 10% of my images (about 7000 images) do not have any history
entries in the database. By that I mean that in the history table is not
a single entry for the image. As soon as I open the image in Darktable a
default history is added.
Because of the white balance problems I'm worried that this might also
cause problems in the future when defaults might change again. Is there
a way to set the default history for all of these images (image ids are
known)? Maybe via a LUA script? Fruthermore is it possible to update all
sidecar files based on the current library database?
import *subject* images and dt will read the xmp files into your db.
or set dt to search for new/changed xmp files on loading and direct dt to
read those files.
Sadly the xmp files for the affected images are also empty. I tried to
trigger a reload in the hope that darktable would apply the default
history in the process but that didn't happen. I got the dialog telling
me that a xmp file was changed and if I want to update the database or
update the xmp file. But both options do not insert anything in the
history table and create an empty xmp file again. So no defaults are
added during that process.
I guess importing the subject images would work but therefore I would
have to import each single file manually. That would gain nothing
compared to just open each file once in darktable.
