Version: 1.8.0 (using KDE 4.5.1)
OS: Linux
When "writing metadata in all files", it takes hours for hours. Compared to DK
Version 1.2 or so, I can NOT see improvements.
I suggest urgntly to us an internal marker to write metadata only in _new_
pics, where this didn't take place already.
The message "update matedata" or so indicates, that the user can choose if
writing _all_ metadat or _only_ new metadata.
From my observations, this message is definitively misleading, as DK only
writes _all_ or _no_ metadata!!!
SUGGESTION: whenever taking up new pics in database, write metadata in pics
and/or database in background.
Maybe, one should be able to configure this item in settings. For my opinion,
this is just a short retardation in working speed- neglectible.
One could use caches to do this job in the background. Not embarrassing the
user.
There are several mechanisms to achieve this.
Reproducible: Always

It is a WISH
