Hi,
I am wondering how shotwell detects duplicates?
When I take a photo with my camera it saves both raw and jpg.
I have opened a raw file in an external editor (ufraw), edited it,
then saved the edit producing a jpg file of the edited photo. But when
I try to import the new jpg into shotwell it claims it to be a
duplicate of an existing photo, despite the fact I have changed a
variety of values in ufraw and cropped it -- so it doesn't look
anything like the existing raw and jpg files.
That's surprising, and could be a bug. What version of Shotwell are you
running?
Could you do the following?
1. Make a copy of the original JPEG file and of the new JPEG which you
saved in UFRaw.
2. Make sure that auto-import is turned off, and run Shotwell with an
empty library (e.g. 'shotwell -d foo'). Now import both of these
JPEGs. Does Shotwell claim they are duplicates?
3. If so, could you email both JPEGs to the Shotwell team at
[email protected] for further investigation?
Other than that I am still getting used to using shotwell, but am
finding it good to work with.
Good to hear.
