Windows folder vs Digikam treeview
SUMMARY
When I create a collection from a local directory containing subfolders on
three levels and pictures inside the third level, only a part of the subfolders
of the first level is imported.
Here is the context and the structure of my directory:
- I have a local brand new NVMe disk of 4TB (in addition of another system
disk C:)
- It is formated as NTFS and mounted on the letter D:
- It contains a folder named 'Photos_videos_Synchro' (level 1)
- Inside it, one subfolders for each year from 2000 to 2025 (+ 4 folders for
1983, 1986, 1996, 1999) (Level 2)
- Inside these folders, pictures and videos are organised in a set of
subfolders named as "aaaa-mm-dd - Description" (Level 3) with 'Description'
about 35 characters
- Pictures formats are : jpg (99%), bmp and png (less than 1%)
- Video format are : mov, avi (up to 2004) and mov, avi, mpg, mpeg after 2004
- Digikam is set to 'French language'
- I run the test both with SQLite and with MariaDb (db digkam_core,
digikam_faces, digikam_similarity) with the same results.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open Digikam 8.6.0
2. Open the collection configuration menu (Menu Configuration/Configure
Digikam/collection)
3. Add a local collection on D:\Photos_videos_Synchro
OBSERVED RESULT
Only folders 1983, 1986, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2001, 2002, 2003, 2004 are listed in
the treeview representing a total about 3,03 GB of 3724 files in 179 subfolders
(all other folders, one per year from 2004 to 2025, are missing - 795Go for 116
168 files in 2455 folders).
Moreover, In the folder named 'D:\Photos_videos_Synchro\2024', Only 25
subfolders over 34 are listed.
Note: The result is the same with or without checking the box 'Monitore albums
to detect external changes'
Note : The result is the same after closing and relaunching Digikam
Note : The result is the same if I rename Photos_videos_Synchro by "Photos"
Note : The result is the same if I copy/past all subfolders from
D:\Photos_videos_Synchro\... in a newly created folder named D:\TEST\....
Note : The result is the same either with SQLite and Maria DB
Note : I Let it run for 8 hours without seeing more subfolders inside the
collection
EXPECTED RESULT
I was expecting to have a collection named "Photos_videos_Synchro", with all
subfolders as they are on D:\Photos_videos_Synchro\...
or a message alerting me if I went over the limits in terms of numbers of
subfolders, files, etc...
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Windows 11 Famille - 24H2
