geolocalization broken?

The last time I tried to edit geotags (07-22) with version 0.9.4_rc2-831435 it
worked great. Today I got the error-message "Unauthorized call of the API!".

Recompiling to version 0.9.5_svn-838484 didn't solve it.

Is digikam or is google maps creating the problem, and how can it be solved?

Caspar.

No. All work fine here using current svn implementation for KDE3

Yes. Well it is working here again too. So probably something going on at the
google maps side at that time.

Right now all access to google happen through a digiKam account, which is limited to 10'000 accesses per day. I've already remarked that at some nights there is no response from google anymore, probably attributable to that limit. The more people use digiKam the earlier this limit will be reached, we'll have to do something about it.

As an intermediate solution we could open more accounts and redirect the php call by the hour (most users are European for now, so it could be optimized for European daytime).

The other solution is to use marble in this plugin. Of course the map
are not the same quality...

That indeed looks like the explanation for what happened. Thanks for the
clarification.

I would hate to see google go for something else.

As discussed elsewhere Marble has its serious problems.

No way, I easily use it as much as 4 Germans, 3 Frenchmen and at least two
guys from Luxembourg. I'm one heavy-using American. ;-)
