Here are two images. The one of the dancers on the bridge is from a camera
still and has exif info. The other in the courtyard is a screen gab from an mp4
video with no exif info...

bridge photo - still image with exif info

This is a still image which quite happily produces a gallery...

I've looked more deeply at this now and tried other photo groups. 
It seems the HTML gallery function will fail if any photo has no EXIF
information.  This should not happen surely?  
Given that it does (for now), what is the minimum EXIF info I need add?

I have found a 'workaround' for this problem. Its a bit tedious but it works,
viz:
1. Use showphoto with all the photos to create folders and thumbnails. 
2. When it fails, repeat procedure but without the images that cause the
failure.
3. Edit the index.html file to add in all the other images with their
respective thumbnails.

It still doesn't explain why the program thinks some of the images are dodgy
though. Is it looking for particular tags somewhere?

[digikam] [Bug 396170] New: Gallery creation error

2018-07-04 Thread Chris N D

Bug ID: 396170
   Summary: Gallery creation error
   Product: digikam
   Version: 5.9.0
  Platform: MS Windows
OS: MS Windows
Status: UNCONFIRMED
  Severity: major
  Priority: NOR
 Component: showfoto
  Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
  Reporter: deuch...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

Generating a gallery in showfoto sometimes ends with the following error:
"could not load xml file ''". Everything appears to be ok
except there is no index.html file created. There *is* a gallery.xml file.

I have created a lot of galleries successfully over the last couple of months
and, 
after trying different photo selections I have come to the conclusion that this
error only occurs when at least one of the images is from a screen grab!

I am using PaintShopPro 8 for the screen grabs. Maybe I should try something
else? - but I don't see why, it functions perfectly well with all other images!

Please advise
