If the time zone is changed, the modification date of files is changed. Therefore digiKam starts a rescan. date -r test.jpg => Fr 20. Nov 22:41:35 CET 2015 timedatectl set-timezone America/New_York date -r test.jpg => Fr 20. Nov 16:41:35 EST 2015 timedatectl set-timezone Europe/Berlin date -r test.jpg => Fr 20. Nov 22:41:35 CET 2015 I see at the moment is no easy way to change this. Date / time store in DB as UTC and only users visible entries convert to local date / time? Maik (In reply to Maik Qualmann from comment #1) > If the time zone is changed, the modification date of files is changed. > Therefore digiKam starts a rescan. Thanks for the explanation. Already guessed that this was the reason. But honestly, modification time does not really change. It only looks differently. > I see at the moment is no easy way to change this. Date / time store in DB > as UTC and only users visible entries convert to local date / time? Maybe that could help. Or an algorithm, that detects that modification time not really has changed.
