"Hide photos already imported" works on the thumbnail (or rather its hash) while the duplicate detection during the import works on the full image (which wasn't downloaded while fetching the previews - previewing would take way too long otherwise) Thus this behavior is possibly valid. The question is rather, why shotwell doesn't detect the previous import assuming that the local thumbnail matches the camera's. Do you have local modifications on the duplicate files? Out of my head I don't know if shotwell stores the camera's preview separately to make sure it's not modified when the local copy is modified and it's thumbnail is regenerated.
Which version are you using? > > PD: Shouldn't it be "1 duplicated photo was not imported" ? I would have said that shotwell's current version reads easier and "seems" just as correct to me - any linguists? > Greetings, > > Abel. > > _______________________________________________ > shotwell-list mailing list > shotwell-list@gnome.org > https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/shotwell-list > _______________________________________________ shotwell-list mailing list shotwell-list@gnome.org https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/shotwell-list
