            Bug ID: 371648
           Summary: not able to use in digikam cifs share with the same
                    name under linux and windows
           Product: digikam
           Version: 5.2.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: AlbumsView
          Assignee: [hidden email]
          Reporter: [hidden email]

I am trying to use digikam as the one and only photo organisation tool.
Unfortunatelly my wife is using windows and I am using linux. All the photos
are stored on a cifs share (NAS). Digikam uses  external mysql server to be
able to use the same "metadatadase" on both systems. But I cannot find a way to
add the cifs share with the same name so that the versions of digikam use the
same folders. One problem is, that the \\ in windows world are not useable in
linux.

So please add a solution to map the different notations.

Exact same situation here. Sharing Digikam's database among multiple operating
systems would be a great feature!

I have the same situation, i'm using multiple Computers in my family network
with Linux and Windows. After browsing FAQs and mailinglist, i didn't find any
way to solve the problem. I've been looking for a universal solution (sharing
Thunbnailsdatabase in Network for Linux and winows) for years and now only this
issue keeps me away from a perfect solution. I'm sure, there are various
Situations, where this issue ist an obstacle so please provide a solution.
Thank you

Same issue here. Windows and OSX. Photos stored on a NAS. Database also.
Sharing this database from both OS would be fantastic and give Digikam a hell
of an USP!!!
