[digikam] [Bug 367642] New: IPTC/XMP metadata not saved to image on exit when Lazy Sync is on

            Bug ID: 367642
           Summary: IPTC/XMP metadata not saved to image on exit when Lazy
                    Sync is on
           Product: digikam
           Version: 5.1.0
          Platform: Kubuntu Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Metadata
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

I've just found that when you have "Lazy Synchronization" enabled, when you tag
a face in the image, the following occurs:

1. If you MANUALLY write the pending changes with the dedicated button,
IPTC/XMP tags are saved to the image correctly
2. If you exit digikam, the XMP (with the face region) won't be saved to the
image as advertised: you will have the face tagged (probably because it's in
digikam DB), but NOT in the file itself.

Reproducible: Always

This causes a data loss somewhat, have you had time to investigate?

Thanks.

Gilles,

We have only the manual method in the status bar. Was it really so thought that
the changes are automatically executed at the end? I would suggest a message
box at the end, if still pending items exist.

Maik,

Yes, i see this behavior on other proprietary software which have the same
feature.

Btw, warning or not, the fact is that data is not saved...

Question: when you press the button in the status bar, are not written all the
metadatas? This problem I can not reproduce here. All metadatas (faces, rating,
tags) are written to the files.

The problem does not occur when you press the button, but when you exit
without doing it, as described in the first message.
