Brug XMP Sidecar i digiKam 2beta 3

Fra Mohammed Maliks blog, 18. marts 2011

Hvad betyder XMP Sidecar? Det betyder, at nå metadata til et foto gemmes, så laves der en XMP-fil sammen med fotoet. Derved gemmes billedets metadata i den nye XMP-fil, som sammenkædes med billedet, i stedet for at skrive metadata ind i billedfilen.

Eksempel

Hvis et billede har navnet mohamedmalik.JPG, så vil billedets metadata blive gemt i filen mohamedmalik.JPG.XMP i samme mappe. Denne fil indeholder alle de nye og tidligere gemte metadata, sådan at billedet selv ikke bliver berørt. Dette er meget nyttigt, når der skrives metadata til RAW-filer.

While using XMP sidecar support there are many options available. In-order to use XMP sidecar support you need to configure it.

In digiKam’s main window go to Settings -> Configure digiKam and select the tab Metadata



There are four options available:

  • Write to image only — This option will not use XMP but will write all the metadata directly into the images.
  • Write to XMP sidecar only — No metadata will be written to any images directly but it will write all metadata into a separate XMP file in the same directory as the image.
  • Write to image & XMP sidecar – metadata will be written to both XMP and Image.
  • Write to XMP sidecar to Read-only images only — which means that images which have read, write and execute permissions metadata will be written directly to the image whereas for Read–only images XMP sidecar will be used.
