[Bug 261582] New: Default filename for renamed imports: remove the colon character.

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=261582

           Summary: Default filename for renamed imports: remove the colon
                    character.
           Product: digikam
           Version: 1.5.0
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Import
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:           1.5.0 (using KDE 4.5.85)
OS:                Linux

Although the colon character : is a legal filename character in ext
filesystems, it is not so for NTFS / FAT filesystems. Therefore I propose that
this character be removed from the Digikam default filename for imported files'
rename. Currently the format is yyyy-mm-ddTHH:MM:SS-000001.JPG

The current behaviour leads to many problems when sharing photos with family
and friends. Seeing how KDE in general and Digikam in particular are moving to
a "social" role this barrier to interoperability is sorely out of place.

Thanks!

Reproducible: Didn't try

Can you try with 1.7.0 ?

What "default" value are you referring to? This name is not a default name when
importing, you must have set an option to get this kind of filename.

Which option did you use?

Preview is a way to load image quickly.

For JPEG, a reduced decoded image is processed. It's a feature provided by
libjpeg.

For RAW, these formats are container. RAW data, JPEG preview, metadata, etc...
In this case JPEG preview is a reduced version of RAW already processed by the
camera when you shot. It's used to display image on device screen or on a tv.

For other format, as PNG, TIFF, PGF, we load a preview JPEG image from IPTC or
XMP metadata. there is a tag dedicated for that.

Hi Gilles and Andi! I did set Digikam to change the filenames to the ISO date.
I just installed Digikam 1.7 as Gilles requested, the relevant option is here:
Download Dialogue -> Settings -> File Renaming Options -> Customize -> Options
-> Date & Time -> Format -> ISO

I'll be honest, though earlier (1.0 and before) had ISO as the "default" for a
time-based rename, version 1.7 has Standard as the "default" and it is not
problematic. Therefore, I will mark this bug as fixed in 1.7. Thank you!

I will mention, however, that Digikam might want to include a warning about
using the ISO date format, as it is not supported under NTFS and FAT
filesystems, for those users who might be tempted to share files via USB
removable media, CDROM, or any transfer method to a Windows-based computer. KDE
even deletes these files if one tries to move them to a FAT-formatted storage
drive:
