Hello
I use DK to manage my pictures since many years. I have a database of 28 000 pictures. Until last year, I used a bridge to take most of my pictures in JPEG. But I bougth a SLR this year and to use the full power of it, i take picture in RAW. To my mind, DK editor is not powerfull enough
for editing RAW (was perfect for me for JPEG) : open a RAW and each applies of effect it's quite slow. So I look to a RAW editor and I find DarkTable which i finf really great.
Even if DarkTable is a great tool; i want to still manage pictures in DK to continue my database.
I have tried several things : import pictures from Digikam; open folder in darktable; starring pictures in darktable; modify picture in DT; Synchronise metadata in DK (to recover number of stars given in DT), Tagging picture (keywords, localisation) in DK (i have set DK to store information in XMP files)
Now, I'm in front of a problem : how to see in DK changes applied in DT? because DK have plugging to export pictures to my fresh (still empty) piwigo web album.
I have tried : export picture in DT; but tags of DK are not synchronized (i was thinking this was possible as they are stored in xmp)..
I though a lot about that, and i think there could be a very simple way to do that : as DK manage versionning by creating a new picture; is there a way to use DT export picture as new version of raw picture in digikam ? For me export DT pictures will have the same name (not the same extension) than the raw picture; so it could be easy to link the two version thanks to a batch process (in order to treat several pictures at the same time)...
Do you know if it's possible?
