[Bug 286276] New: Digikam does not show .mkv nor .thm files

[Thomas Damgaard]

https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=286276

           Summary: Digikam does not show .mkv nor .thm files
           Product: digikam
           Version: 2.1.1
          Platform: Ubuntu Packages
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: [hidden email]
        ReportedBy: [hidden email]


Version:           2.1.1 (using KDE 4.7.2)
OS:                Linux

In album view, Digikam does not show Matroska video files (.mkv) nor does it
show .thm files (video metadata-files from digital cameras such as CANONs
PowerShot and IXUS series).

I think this should be implemented.

Reproducible: Didn't try



Expected Results:  
Show mkv and thm files just like other image viewers like gwenview.

THM files are just regular JPG files. You can add this extension to the list of
displayed filetypes under Settings->Configure Digikam->Mime Types->Additional
image file extensions.

You can also try it for MKV.

Still, making these handled by default is a good idea IMHO.

Actually, .THM files are not only jpeg files. They are metadata files for
corresponding .AVI files with the same name. That is, if there is an AVI filed
MOV4272.AVI and a .THM file called MOV4272.THM, then the MOV4272.THM contains
metadata for the video file MOV4272.AVI. MOV4272.THM contains data such as:
 - EXIF data about the camera settings
 - Date and time when the video was shot
 - Thumbnail preview of a frame from the video

It would be useful if digikam could handle this and apply link the metadata to
the corresponding video file.

Note .THM are jpeg files. jpeg is image + metadata container.
