Description bert 2009-06-14 19:26:04 UTC
Version:           0.10-ubuntu3 (using KDE 4.2.2)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

I had to merge photos from different cameras (from friends ) in one album. I discovered that the time of one of the cameras was wrong and I changed them with the exiftime tool to the right time.

I had expected digikam to pick up those new times with "synchronize all images with database. That didn't work as expected. I tried different things (removing the album and re-adding) but eventually had to delete the database and rebuild it in order to get the right dates in.

I imagine the problem of merging two batches of photos with different time-stamps in one album ocures more often. What whould be the work-flow to make this with digikam?
