>From time to time I cannot export a picture. I've tried to "debug" this a bit today to understand what is going on.
The scenario to reproduce is: - start dt - set the file manager to 3 picture in a row (that is, somewhat big thumbnail) - switch to an old filmroll (potentially on an external drive a bit slower). - export a picture from the filmroll => nothing happen, no export is taking place Using darktable -d control I think I found what's wrong. When you switch to an old filmroll dt start updating the thumbnail to display them in big resolution, I have on the console: > [revive_job] load image 43495 mip 2 > [add_job] 30 load image 43495 mip 2 > [add_job] too many jobs in queue! > [revive_job] load image 43496 mip 2 > [add_job] 30 load image 43496 mip 2 > [add_job] too many jobs in queue! > [revive_job] load image 43589 mip 2 > [add_job] 30 load image 43589 mip 2 The queue is full. When I click on the export button my job did not get inserted into the queue because it is full. This is probably done in control.c:dt_control_add_job() If I wait long enough for dt to hanles all jobs in the queue I can export. Would it be possible to insert export job with higher priority to avoid them being removed? Anyway I'm not familiar enough with this code to find a way to fix. Any idea?
