[Bug 220545] Cannot write XMP sidecar files

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220545

--- Comment #9 from Andreas Huggel <ahuggel gmx net>  2010-04-01 03:33:09 ---
Exiv2 (that without the little 'k' ;) converts a number of Exif tags and IPTC
datasets to the XMP sidecar and back. Try it out with the exiv2 command line
utility. 

Gilles is right about the makernote, that is lost. It's also true that I'm not
keen to dump the makernote as a large binary blob into an XMP property as
exiftool does. It is unlikely that any other application would ever be able to
deal with such a blob properly. Instead I suggested to write the _known_
makernote tags as readable properties in new custom namespaces (e.g., like
Xmp.Nikon3.WhiteBalance). But that's just an idea at this point, no such code
exists yet.

I think that should be possible. In digiKam the main concern is about the
workflow and the options to control the handling of XMP sidecars. When it comes
to the contents of the sidecar files, you'll need to turn to libexiv2.

[Bug 220545] Cannot write XMP sidecar files

Andreas, thanks for your reply!

Yes, it's a very handy tool. I guess you mean "... IPTC datasets _in image
files_ ..."? In my simple test above, the XMP encoded Exif and IPTC stuff was
returned in the XMP 'field' of the Exiv2::Image - not in the Exif and IPTC
fields, respectively, as far as I could tell. How can this be accomplished? The
case is different from what the command line utility does with the "-i X"
option in that it _only_ reads the contents of the XMP sidecar, and doesn't
have an image file to put write it to. Is it in the writing that the conversion
happens?

I suppose that at least when I would do a "save" from libkexiv2 (which puts
Exif, IPTC and XMP metadata in the Exiv2::Image using setExifData, setIPTCData,
and setXMPData, respectively, and then calls writeMetaData) the Exif and IPTC
data would get converted to XMP tags, and written to the XMP sidecar? Can you
confirm this behaviour?

Crash come from PicasaWebExport plugin. Please update kipi-plugins 1.2 and try
again

[Bug 232233] Databaseext-branch does not compile on Windows with mingw4

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=232233

--- Comment #14 from Julien Narboux <Julien narboux fr>  2010-04-01 08:46:34 ---
I can confirm that now the fields in the mysql settings are filled with some
default value.
If I try to use the internal database, I get an error message.
But I think I shouldn't report this issue in this bug report.

Note : new CImg version do not have greystoration code anymore. all code have
been move to GMic library :

http://gmic.sourceforge.net/

So digiKam greycstoration filter need to be ported to GMic

[Bug 220545] Cannot write XMP sidecar files

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=220545

--- Comment #11 from Gilles Caulier <caulier gilles gmail com>  2010-04-01 09:17:36 ---
about XMP sidecar support, see below my proposal :

1/ read XMP sidecar : 
 - must be used when metadata must be imported to database (scan at startup for
ex.).
 - in first image metadata must be check, including makernotes. if nothing is
find, XMP sidecar is the alternative.
 - this include all file format as images and video files.

2/ Write XMP sidecar :
 - must be used to sync image metadata with database contents.
 - in first metadata must be written in image file. If image format is read
only or not supported by Exiv2, XMP sidecar must be created. This is the case
of RAW files or video files for ex.

To manage these rules, 2 implementation must be fixed :

1/ libkexiv2, especially read and write method.
2/ digiKam MetadataHub which is the core metadata management from digiKam.
3/ digiKam metadata settings pannel where option must be added to play with XMP
sidecar.
