Wrong filter results

[Wolfgang Mader]

Hi list,

I still have issues with filtering out data types. As you can see on the
screenshot, the left image is of type JPG while the right one if of type JPEG,
mind the extra E. If I filter for jpeg files, only files of type JPG are shown.
Moreover, as can be seen on the right panel of the screenshot, no dimension is
known for the JPEG file. This is unique to digikam, since e.g. Gwenview or
dophin know about dimensions. Where does Digikam takes the info for the file
type from to show the overlay (here JPG or JPEG). The connection to the my file
server is very slow. Can this be the reason for this problem?

Thank you in advance.
Best, Wolfgang

No. These info are taken by Exiv2 library and stored as well in database.

Sound like, exiv2 metadata extraction is broken.... Can you try to
sync DB with file metadata using option from main menu, to see if
metadata can be extracted again ?

Thanks for this tip. This happens occasionnally on a few pictures, and I didn't know how to fix this issue.

Are we talking about Album->Reread Metadate from Images?
