Bug ID: 470566 Summary: Metadata not updated Classification: Applications Product: digikam Version: 8.0.0 Platform: Other OS: Microsoft Windows Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Metadata-Engine Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: bugzi...@kgb.ovh Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 159418 --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=159418&action=edit screen capture SUMMARY Difficult to update an image. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Outside digiKam 8.0.0, modify some information about some images. For example, use exiftool directly to add geo‐location to a photograph. Or change the timestamp of a file (I’m not speaking about the Exif time, although the result should be the same). 2. Rescan your image (after a digiKam restart or manually refresh a folder). OBSERVED RESULT Metadata is usually not updated in digiKam. After the metadata update, I tried many things to force digiKam to update the metadata: - restart digKam to force it to update the files, - delete the files then restore them, - rescan the folder, - rename the files, - have a new identical copy in the system file manager. They all fail. In the screen capture, you can see that digiKam actually updates something, but not all. − The geo‐location appears in the Metadata pane, but the globe icon is not presented for any of these photographs. - I can’t upload these files to iNaturalist because they are “not located”. - However the Geolocation Editor can pin the photograph where it belongs. EXPECTED RESULT The metadata should be updated. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows: 7 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
