Hi everyone,
I used the geotag module all the time with earlier versions of darktable, but I can’t for the life of me figure out how to get the module in 3.6.1.6 to work. It’s been redesigned. If it matters, I’m on a Mac (MacOS 10.6). I’ve read the darktable help, but remain bamboozled.
In the old module, in lightable, I’d select all the images from my day, click the “apply GPX track file” button, browse to my GPX file, tell darktable my timezone, and voila. All done, and easy. Now, well, I’m not sure.
If I’m reading it right, the help says to find the first image in the set with a reliable time, tap the “apply date/time” button, then “Press the lock button to lock the calculated offset in the module.” (after many minutes of confusion, I noticed a small light grey lock icon on the dark grey background, but it doesn’t do anything for me), then “Select all of the images you wish to adjust and click apply offset to apply the calculated offset to those images”. That last step doesn’t work because no matter what I do the apply offset button remains greyed out, probably because the lock button also doesn’t work for me.
I can geotag one image at a time if I select an image, and tap the “apply date/time” button, then use “apply GPX track file”. I can’t figure out how to get darktable to do this for a set of images from a trip.
I can’t tell if this is a Mac bug or I’m doing it wrong. Has anyone got this working?
I’m about to head off to Terminal and do it with exiftool instead.
Thanks for your time if you’ve read this far.
Here’s a screenshot of what the module looks like for me. Most of the options remain greyed out.
