Description silvanociru 2017-11-14 21:28:39 UTC
Videos recorded by my camera Sony (DSC-RX100M2) are being accompanied by a sidecard JPEG image with extension .THM containing the metadata of the video in EXIF format.

It would be quite helpful if those metadata would get imported into the Digikam XMP sidecar.

Note : to use extra sidecar file different than .xmp, you have a settings in Setup/Metadata/Sidecars DK config dialog.
