Description Jan van Bekkum 2022-08-02 14:31:58 UTC
SUMMARY

I use the popular Insta360 ONE X2 camera for 360 degrees video clips and manage the files with digiKam. Every clip generates 2 or 3 files. I would like to stack all files of a single clip. File names have the following format: XXX_YYMMDD_HHMMSS_XX_NNN.insv.  For a single clip the positions X differ, the rest is identical.

It would save me a lot of work if stacking could be automated based on the filename pattern.

By "stacking" do you mean group the files in the icon view?

Basically, this wish/bug is a candidate for Bug 318357. The only question is, are you able to create a regular expression for your use case?

I can create a regular expression for it (in my experience Regex are not as
complex as they seem on first view). Ideally it would work on a selection
of files (folder, tag, ...), but an import tool already would be a big
improvement.
