Trying digikam for DAM functionality on a Windows 11 machine. I have just shy of 200,000 images and videos that are on an external drive and total about 6TB. I have tried 5 scans. All of the folders show in digikam but not all of the files. In the “Labels” window the most I can get to show is 48,731 of the 200,000. In the “Albums” window a few folders show images but most do not.
If I trigger a new scan it seems to just goes through the folders it already has and not pick up any of the missing ones.
Is 200,000 more than digikam can handle?
Is there a way to trigger a scan of a particular folder?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
Certainly not. You might want to consider running MySQL instead of SQLite.
Are you sure you have the correct permissions on the external disk?
I will look into using MySQL.
I think the permissions should be fine. Other programs like XnView MP and iMatch can find and interact with the files.
