Summary: media viewer does not sort correctly
Product: digikam
Version: 0.9.1
Platform: Fedora RPMs
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Import
AssignedTo: digikam-devel kde org
ReportedBy: jarviksin hotmail com
Version: 0.9.1 (using KDE KDE 3.5.6)
Installed from: Fedora RPMs
OS: Linux
It would appear that the media browser sorts files in alphabetical order on a per directory basis. On my camera (flash card) there are files named img_*.jpg for images and mvi_*.avi for movies. Because the files are sorted alphabetically, my pictures / videos do not appear in the correct order. For example, if I have the following files:
img_001.jpg
img_002.jpg
mvi_003.avi
img_004.jpg
img_005.jpg
the media browser displays them in this order:
img_001.jpg
img_002.jpg
img_004.jpg
img_005.jpg
mvi_003.avi
Basically this makes me have to hunt for movies that correspond to the same "set" as my still images.
The problem is compounded because it does this on a per-directory basis. If all my images were in one directory, it wouldn't be that big of a problem ... all my movies would be at the end. But because this is done on a per-directory basis, depending on the number of directories on my flash card, I have mvi_* files scattered throughout the media browser display, not in chronological order.
It would be nice to have an option to sort files a specific way in the media browser, or to have them sorted chronologically by default.
