OK .. forget Geeqie or Digikam ... just look at the way dt operates. I import a roll directly from the camera into dt. The images (in the camera are called IMG_1234.CR2 etc ... The images go into a folder called 2012-05-05--Family. The images are imported into dt with the converted name 20120505-0001.CR2 using the date plus a sequence number import option.
If I now look at any file manager dt has correctly (as asked) renamed all of the image files in that roll to 20120505-0001.CR2 02, 03 .....etc Just as asked. Now when I open that folder in dt a typical true file name is 20120505-0001.CR2 but dt insists on displaying it as IMG_1234.CR2 ... which is a file name that no longer exists. So ... if I do a search for file IMG_1234.CR2 on my system the file is not found; thus there is no co-relation between the dt internal name being used and the actual file name. Maybe that is more clear ...
