Sentry Crash Report:

Description Kristian Karl 2016-12-18 15:44:51 UTC 
When opening the people view in a large window allowing for many faces, the thumbnails will flicker continuously.

Steps to reproduce
==================
1) Use the faces images from http://cswww.essex.ac.uk/mv/allfaces/faces94.html
   http://cswww.essex.ac.uk/mv/allfaces/faces94.zip
2) Create test folder and put the images there.
3) Create a new test database, and use the images above
5) Open the People view, and scan all images for faces using the default options.
5) Look for Unknown, and set the size of the face thumbnails to smallest (124px)
6) Make the window size for Digikam large enough until the flicker starts. I usually get it with > ~210 faces (thumbnails).

Expected result
================
People view displays the thumbnails without flicker.

Actual result
===============
People view displays the thumbnails constant flickering

Additional info
===============
See video of flickering at https://youtu.be/AwmapnWNDBw
I get this on my laptop and desktop.

I was using digikam built from sources (d72b486b7109fd80f6071fd78af2b9509de56044)

Observation
===========
It seems that applying following patch makes the flicker go away. But I'm not sure  what the downside of the patch is...

Comment 1 Kristian Karl 2016-12-18 15:54:03 UTC 
I noticed this first, when using a maximized Digikam window on a 4K monitor, where enough faces/thumbnails were rendered to cause the flickering.

Reducing the size of the Digikam window will make the flickering go away.
Comment 2 caulier.gilles 2016-12-24 18:11:14 UTC 
Can you reproduce the problem with pre-release 5.4.0 AppImage univerdal bundle for Linux available here :

https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzeiVr-byqt5Y0tIRWVWelRJenM
Comment 3 Kristian Karl 2016-12-25 11:38:38 UTC 
Yes, I could reproduce the problem on the pre-release 5.4.0 AppImage.

Comment 5 caulier.gilles 2017-06-26 08:44:45 UTC 
Here, i tried with digiKam 5.7.0 + Qt 5.9. + KF5 5.35, and OpenCV 3.1.0 with a 4K monitor under Mageia6. I cannot reproduce the problem.

Which screen resolution do you use exactly ?

Gilles Caulier
Comment 6 Kristian Karl 2017-06-26 08:56:21 UTC 
I have seen this problem on 2 different 4K screens. One connected to my midtower machine. 
And last, my laptop Lenovo Thinkpad X240 connected using Display Port to a BenQ BL3201PT 32-inch Ultra HD, running 3840x2160 30 FPS

It does not matter what size I have on the thumbnails, 128 or 256 px.
Comment 7 caulier.gilles 2018-08-29 07:48:56 UTC 
The AppImage Linux Bundle have been recompiled with last changes from source code and is available here for testing :

https://files.kde.org/digikam/

Take a care : 6.0.0 is a beta release for the moment. Make a database backup before to test.

Problem still here ?

Gilles Caulier
Comment 8 Maik Qualmann 2018-09-03 11:59:02 UTC 
I had looked at this a while ago. I suspect after the video here is some display composer used (Compiz?). This probably sends a paint event constantly. Normally, the paint event occurs only when e.g. a window is moved in front over the thumbnails. At the moment I do not see a solution to not break other display managers.

Maik
Comment 9 Kristian Karl 2018-09-06 11:59:01 UTC 
I tested this on a different 4k screen, and I get the same problem.
Using the latest from git: 0890e2005cae874dd1fcf71c2d3642152c00eff0, digikam produces the following on the terminal during this flickering

Comment 10 Maik Qualmann 2018-09-07 06:03:33 UTC 
The first thing that is strange is that you constantly have a paint event. As I said, usually only when the mouse pointer or a window moves in front of it or the view is scrolled. The second question is where the empty ImageInfo::filePath() come from to preload thumbnails. If I create a patch with more debug output, can you apply it for testing?

Maik
Comment 11 Kristian Karl 2018-09-07 06:52:21 UTC 
Absolutely!
I'll try some debugging of my own in the meantime. I got a dual screen setup to hel me debug now.
Comment 12 Kristian Karl 2018-09-07 08:31:48 UTC 
When debugging this morning, I paused during flicker, and paused execution. Every time I paused , the stack trace for Digikam code started at:
https://github.com/KDE/digikam/blob/c013f88088bf08e321e4da8be71a61b02b67af2c/core/libs/widgets/itemview/itemviewcategorized.cpp#L997

I added before the return statement:
    qCDebug(DIGIKAM_GENERAL_LOG) << "Event: " << event;
    return DCategorizedView::viewportEvent(event);

Which now gave the following output during flicker:

Some more details observed while debugging.
It seems like ThumbnailLoadingTask is getting called repeatably during flicker:

Comment 14 Maik Qualmann 2018-09-10 19:53:54 UTC 
That's right, the thumbnails are "preloaded" by the Paint Event. The thumbnail task will send a signal to the image model that the thumbnail is available and it will be drawn. By you over and over again.  The advantage of this thumbnail preload only with the fast scrolling, the thumbnails appear faster. The problem is the Paint Event, which is constantly triggered by you. So again my question: which desktop? which display manager and extension? Graphics card and driver?

Resolution on the screen: 3840x2160
Comment 16 caulier.gilles 2018-09-11 08:33:29 UTC 
Do you use X11 or Wayland ?

I never tested AppImage with Wayland, and think it must miss some piece of Qt plugins in the bundle.

Gilles Caulier
Comment 17 Kristian Karl 2018-09-11 11:31:42 UTC 
I use x11

echo $XDG_SESSION_TYPE
x11
Comment 18 Kristian Karl 2018-09-11 11:34:03 UTC 
I think that maybe the resolution might be involved somehow.
If I use may 2560x1440, I don't get any flickering.
When I use 3840x2160, I do get flickering.

Please note, that the digikam window is maximized in both cases.
Comment 19 Kristian Karl 2018-09-11 11:44:37 UTC 
Maybe a long shot, but could maybe this method be involved somehow?

https://github.com/KDE/digikam/blob/c013f88088bf08e321e4da8be71a61b02b67af2c/core/libs/widgets/itemview/dcategorizedview.cpp#L70-L132

I'll add some debug logging and see what I can find
Comment 20 caulier.gilles 2018-09-11 13:55:06 UTC 
Another way to experiment :

In appimage, we use Qt 5.9.6 LTS. Perhaps a major update to Qt 5.11.x can solve this problem.

Gilles Caulier
Comment 21 Kristian Karl 2018-09-11 14:50:58 UTC 
I tested the latest appimage of Digikam (digikam-5.9.0-01-x86-64.appimage) on the latest KUbuntu (18-04.1) version on Virtualbox. 

1) I used images from http://cswww.essex.ac.uk/mv/allfaces/faces94.html
   http://cswww.essex.ac.uk/mv/allfaces/faces94.zip

2) I then let Digikam scan for faces on all the images

3) I open People view, and select the tag unknown

4) Select a Flat List in the View | Separate Items

4) I maximize my VirtualBox window in my 3840x2160 screen, and then maximize Digikam in VirtualBox.

5) I click on the People view tab (hide it), so I can maximize the number of thumbnails in the window.

6) Adjust thumbnail sizes to smallest possible.

I get flicker.

Using the steps above should be enough to reproduce the flicker on any 4k screen.

If an 4K screen is not available, the VirtualBox window could be made very large by just increasing the size of that window, and moving it outside, until a very large window is made, the maximize the Digikam window.

I think the problem perhaps is related to the actual size of the Digikam window, and the number of people thumbnails being displayed?
Comment 22 caulier.gilles 2018-09-11 15:13:17 UTC 
In virtualbox, did you enable 3D support (openGL)

Comment 23 Kristian Karl 2018-09-11 15:39:29 UTC 
No. 3D Acceleration was disabled.

With 3D Acceleration enabled, I still get flickering on my VirtualBox installation, I'm afraid.

ok, 

What's about the cores assigned to the VM ? Same for the system memory and the video memory.

This is important because it can influence to the rendering performances.

Comment 29 caulier.gilles 2019-03-20 15:16:07 UTC 
After 3 weeks of work, i finally completed the compilation of AppImage using Qt
5.11.3 + QWebkit 5.212.

New 6.1.0 pre-release AppImage bundle can be found here (64 bits only for the
moment) :

https://files.kde.org/digikam/

Please check if this bugzilla entry still valid.

Thanks in advance

I can confirm, that the issue still exists.

I tried using digikam-6.1.0-git-20190321T102236-x86-64.appimage

If there's anything I can do, to try to pin-point the problem, I'm happy to help out.
