Again, I reproduced it this morning with shotwell 0.11.
I did a first run with logging [shotwell.log] and then it halted so I killed the app. Then I restarted shotwell with logging [shotwell1.log] and noticed that the Auto-import was starting before I did anything. So I thought that might have been the problem. I went to preferences to turn off auto-importing. Nothing was there to disable it. But I found an option through gconf-editor and disabled it. So I closed shotwell and restarted it with logging [shotwell2.log]. I imported my photos correctly.

Interestingly whenever I killed shotwell while it was importing the photos RAW+JPEG that were imported until the app is killed show up separately.

I attach the logs however here are some interesting things:

[shotwell.log]:
L 4850 2011-09-01 11:16:20 [WRN] ImportPage.vala:1392: Unable to fetch metadata for /DCIM/100D5000/DSC_0001.NEF: [-1] Error retrieving file object for /DCIM/100D5000/DSC_0001.NEF: Unspecified error


This is strange. What kind of path is that. The actual path should be /media/4FC5-8E2D/DCIM/...

First run halts and I killed it at 11:23:45 (closed to the end of the log).

[shotwell1.log]:
L 8234 2011-09-01 11:33:27 [CRT] Thumbnail.vala:325: Unable to fetch low-quality thumbnail for DataView DSC_0126.NEF [DataSource [22034] /home/pmatos/Pictures/2011/08/31/DSC_0126.NEF] (scale: 160): Failed to open file '/home/pmatos/.shotwell/thumbs/thumbs128/thumb0000000000005612.jpg': No such file or directory

Can't understand what's the problem here. Should check if file exists once I get back home but if it doesn't exist then I need to understand why it was not created to start with.

How does the creation of thumbnails work? I can imagine that a thread is spawned to create the thumbnail and once that is done, an event is received and the thumbnail is displayed. Is it something like this?

Cheers,
