[Bug 299922] New: File format dependent manipulating support

            Bug ID: 299922
          Severity: wishlist
           Version: 2.5.0
          Priority: NOR
          Assignee: [hidden email]
           Summary: File format dependent manipulating support
    Classification: Unclassified
                OS: Linux
          Reporter: [hidden email]
          Hardware: Ubuntu Packages
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
         Component: Image Editor
           Product: digikam

I use digital cameras sind some 7 years: Canon Powershot A 710 IS, Canon
Powershot A 720 IS, Fujifilm FinePix S2500HD Review, NIKON D60, NIKON D3100,
receiving several other formt from friends.
Many presumably older file formats do not support all modern features of
metadata storage, e.g.

"Old" Canon raw format "CRW/CR" accept tags when adding them, but do not stores
these infomation reliably; when checking these pics later, the tags are
missing. Work is lost, time has been spent useless...

From similar observations, I concude, the support of several file-formats might
be different.

On the other side, it would be easy to maintain a simple collection of
supported file formats and to match this listing with the very version of
digikam.

If doing so, it would be a small step to exclude certain file formats from
specific manipulations. Why wasting time for unrealizable steps.

In extending this idea, ohne should uses this capbility even when opening pics,
already.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. unfortunately, digikam forces the user to waste his time without beeing sure
of succcess
2.
3.
Actual Results:  
please see above

Expected Results:  
as describe above, digikam should offer a pic-format depending manipulating
engine.

for my opinion, this is more than a wish for new feature- it deals with
workflow, time saving and professionality

--- Comment #1 from Gilles Caulier <[hidden email]> ---
Universal metadata storage is XMP sidecar, which will work with all file
format.

We have work a lots with next 2.6.0 to improve XMP sidecar support (better that
2.5.0).

It's the solution of your problem...
