Just in the practical sense that it has resulted in two (IIRC) different people 
posting here recently about it preventing them from using darktable to import 
files from their camera/card in the manner that they were used to.

I'm not trying to assert anything particularly about exFAT, just pondering if 
there should perhaps be another option in the import module... one that can 
just be pointed to a filesystem directory like the "folder" import, but which 
actually moves the files to a new location before the import. Seems like it 
would add some flexibility. I personally am perfectly happy pulling the files 
from my cards outside of darktable, but some people apparently feel otherwise. 
I could be completely wrong about all of that. :)

And what obstacle is that?
You are only going to need exFAT if your card is over 32G.
I'm not saying that 32G is the new version of 640k, just that I don't see a
problem with using exFAT.  It's a Microsoft 'invention' and hence not-a-problem
with Windows; it's a FUSE FS with Linux and I've had no problems with it.

It's as much an obstacle as any other optional file system for Linux and OSX 
users.
BTDT using a couple of 64G cards.

I think it's just an easier way to provide a universal-ish (to the 
extent that libgphoto will recognize your card) mechanism to import 
photos without having to deal with file management

Yes, of course, but as DT uses the same filemanager as the system, why could it 
not see things the system does ?

you do not want to keep the images on your card, do you?

"import" in dt merely stores the image properties and location into the
~/.config/darktable/library.db

In DT, import from folder keeps the files in place, whereas import from
device actually copies the files from the card to the hard drive, and
renames them etc.

Rapid Photo Dowloader does all this too :

It can save your photos / videos on a second device at the same time it loads

There, I am a bit lost : if you can see the contents of your card from within 
the file selector, why would not it be possible from DT or any other program ?

if you have a filemanager that can see your card, copy the files to a
local drive and set Shotwell to address that drive instead of your card. 
w/o shotwell being able to see your card (and dt) which I cannot
understand, that will be the closest to your present workflow, unless you
want to write a script to do what shotwell does.

if you do not have a filemanager that can see your card, you will have to
determine why and address that problem.  

I would bet the problem with shotwell is your version of libgphoto2, I
have libgphoto2-6-2.5.17

Shotwell imports with the 'gphoto2' library, just like Darktable, so this
issue would affect them both equally.

Re: [darktable-user] SDXC Card not detected

[Abhijit Kshirsagar]

My workflow (which worked on the previous cards) was as follows. Comments
welcome.

1. Use Shotwell to import all media from the card onto my hard drive.
I've configured Shotwell to do the renaming, file/folder hierarchy etc.
I use multiple cameras, including my phone.
Shotwell creates JPGs for RAWs on import, which is nice to just glance
through to get some idea of what I've got.
It also imports videos which is good.

2. After I import RAW files using Shotwell, I just open darktable to
process and generate the JPGs.

Since shotwell was unable to import from the new card, I tried to use DT
for import (after watching some youtube tutotials) and realised DT doesn't
see the card either.

Hello,

One thing I don't understand : why do you want DT to directly access the photos 
from the card ?

Why don't you transfer the files to a HD and, then, import them in DT and 
process them from there ?

Rgrds,

copy or move the files from the card to the local drive, don't
"copy-import" whatever that is.  and why are you worrying about video
files, dt doesn't do video, it does stills.

Re: [darktable-user] SDXC Card not detected

[Robert Bieber]

A friend of mine had this problem recently, I believe the issue was that 
gphoto doesn't recognize SDXC cards, something to do with needing to use 
FUSE.  I could have sworn they got a fix landed for that, but I don't 
know how long it'll take to make it into a release of gphoto and then 
from there to a release of DT

Hello all!

Recently I got a new memory card (SanDisk 64GB U3/V30), and formatted 
it using the camera (Sony A6000). In order to get Ubuntu 16.04 to 
recognize it, I had to install exfat-utils and exfat-fuse packages 
using the default repositories.


Now nautilus is able to recognise and auto-mount the card when 
inserted, but darktable does not see the card; and neither does shotwell
(both Shotwell and darktable work with older, slower cards I have; 
16GB U1/Class 10 or slower)


In disk utility, i can see that the camera has formatted it as an 
exfat partition with a little unused space at the beginning - I'm not 
sure if/why this should cause any issued.


Also, the card is mounted in the usual location 
(/media/username/CardName/); and verified that df shows it correctly 
as well.


Is anyone else having this issue?

Thanks!

work-a-round:
  use whatever file utility you have that can read the card to transfer
  the images onto your file-system, then import into dt.
  
ps: that is how I do it.
