https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420334 --- Comment #44 from MarcP --- I can confirm that this is still an issue in the 7.7.0 versions. I had an issue with my database and I had to reconstruct it. Right now my pictures are in a remote NAS and while Digikam is importing a few hundreds of GB of pictures (will take several hours) the UI is basically frozen and cannot be used. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420334 --- Comment #43 from MarcP --- Mmm, I don't think nothing changed in that regard. I believe that, in slow networks, the database must be locked when it's being accessed. When scanning new pictures, the interface freezes during the import of each single picture, so it's only responsible for a few moments after each picture has been imported, I guess it's when the database is available again for new queries. So, in practical terms, digikam is only usable once it has finished importing new pictures (either because a new collection has been added, or new pictures have been found during the initial scan). -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

[digikam] [Bug 420334] GUI hangs when adding a network folder
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420334 --- Comment #41 from MarcP --- Hi, I can confirm that this problem still persists in Ubuntu 20.04 using the latest flatpak build (Build date: 22/8/21 10:27 (target: Debug) Rev.: 699538c1b3ff85650d617ab716493135fe44c999) Even now that the initial scan is much faster, when there are new images to import the interface becomes really sluggish, not responding to clicks or scroll. Only in the brief period after a picture has been imported to the database, the interface seems to respond again. Obviously the time it takes to import the data depends on the speed of the media, so importing via network this effect is much more noticeable.

[digikam] [Bug 420334] GUI hangs when adding a network folder
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420334 --- Comment #38 from MarcP --- Ok, I did some tests, all of them using the stable 7.0.0 x64 version. I used a set of ~500 pictures, 4.5GB in size, and using a blank database. Basically, when storing the pictures locally, the import process is so fast (around half a minute) that there isn't time to notice any stutters. So no problemes there. When the pictures are in a NAS, the situation changes, but there are differences between OS. - In Windows 10, the interface never freezes. It may stutter every now and then due to the pictures being loaded, but that's it, works just fine. - In Linux (Ubuntu 20.04), it's a hit and miss. Most of the time the interface is responsive, but every now and then it will freeze for a few seconds at a time and showing the "this application is not responding" dialog. It happened probably 4 or 5 times when importing these pictures. I think I might have triggered it if I browsed pictures from the search panel while it was still scanning. - In MacOS (Catalina) the situation was worse; the interface was almost frozen for each file that was being imported, and responded briefly after it finished and before it started importing the next one. I have to clarify that the freezes only happen when new files are being imported. If the initial scan is not finding anything new, the interface will be ok even if the progress bar is still present. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420334 --- Comment #36 from MarcP --- I think it also happens with a local collection, but since the latency is much lower, the time it takes to import each individual picture is also lower and the effect is less pronounced. I'll run some tests this afternoon, comparing local / network files, and in Windows, Linux and MacOS. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420334 --- Comment #34 from MarcP --- I can confirm this still happens in the stable 7.0.0 release under MacOS Catalina. I copy what I wrote in a related bug report (Bug 389652): "I experienced this again in the 7.0.0 stable version on a macbook with MacOS Catalina (but also in Ubuntu some days ago). During the initial scan, while exploring for new pictures (less than 100) on a NAS, the interface was completely frozen, showing the spinning "beach ball" icon, and indicating that digiKam was "Not responding" in MacOS's task manager. The interface responded briefly after each new file that was added (~10MB each, since they were in PNG format), but became immediately irresponsible again. I think this should not happen. A regular user might thing that the program has crashed and try to force close it. The interface could provide more feedback on what digiKam is doing at that moment (showing which file is importing, how many files are left, etc. instead of a simple % bar, Bug #389868). Ideally, the interface should never freeze, so maybe there could be some way of separating the import process from the main interface so one doesn't block the other?" -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Look here in MacOS section: https://www.digikam.org/contribute/ Warning : this will generate a very verbose output on the console. Typically, the file open by Exiv2 library while scanning will appear. Crash must follow just later. Depending of many core you have on your mac, the real file crashing the library can be one from _n_ steps/cores in the trace, no more. I recommend to isolate album first containing many image. Import only this album and see if crash is reproducible. If yes, removing images step by step will permit to isolate the problematic file.

Not sure if it's indexing, though, no visual cue (there are so many files, 0% for 5 minutes now), Picasa was popping up a lower corner of the screen notification if it found any new images/videos. Later edit: Checked the sample of digikam, seems to be doing the indexing in the background :-) ???

I suggest you scan them to be extra safe on virustotal https://drive.google.com/open?id=1h3YzoPH4Ahg0qmH5u2O_Aqpcgg3h3u1G Regards! I'm very happy i found digiKam, seems to be only product that has the same versatility as Picasa. Great support, thanks Maik, Gilles. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
[digikam] [Bug 420334] GUI hangs when adding a network folder
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420334 --- Comment #14 from Maik Qualmann --- This message makes me wonder: QFileSystemWatcher::addPath(). Did you reactivate the monitoring of albums in the settings? This option is deactivated by default. Under MacOS, it takes hours to load albums from network drives. Go to the config file "digikamrc" and set Album Monitoring = false. Maik -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=420334 --- Comment #7 from Stefan S --- I cannot select or do anything in the GUI. It is completely blocked. Uploading a video to youtube with screen recording. The only non-default configuration I'm aware of is that i selected to write all metadata to all images. Like faces / any metadata. But since this is the first time it is indexing, there is nothing new to store, I suppose. Here is the video link to the screen recording, will delete this in 24 hours for privacy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m98cbtU1Hac Stefan -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

If I integrate a new network collection here under Linux and the scan is running, I can work with digiKam without any problems. Gilles, can you confirm that MacOS doesn't work?

Keep in mind that the scanning process is massively loading your file system. Depending on the database (SQLite, MySQL) on which drive (SSD / HDD) it is located also has an influence.
