Description Richard Taylor 2004-09-17 19:09:03 UTC
Version:           0.1.0-cvs (using KDE 3.3.0, Gentoo)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.3 20040412 (Gentoo Linux 3.3.3-r6, ssp-3.3.2-2, pie-8.7.6)
OS:                Linux (i686) release 2.6.8-gentoo-r3

When batch converting from tif images to jpeg images the conversion produces two jpeg files. filename.jpg.0 and filename.jpg.1. The .0 file is the correct image and the .1 file is a thumbnail. 

Because the new jpeg images do not have the correct final extension to the filename digikam does not show them, which is rather confusing.

I guess that the conversion is picking up the thumbnail that is embedded in the tif by the camera.

The problem is because of the way that ImageMagik convert handles images with embedded thumbnails. The following simple patch fixes the problem for me. I guess that someone else should check that it does not break other peoples conversions.

This patch fix the problem. Thanks
I have also patched all makeProcess() methods for all others BatchProcessImages plugins.
