Hello, I think the title is not refreshed when we execute "Read again metadata from file" from the Item menu. Step to reproduce: - Open digikam, select a picture, open the right panel "caption" > "description". - Set the title 'title original" on this picture for the french locale using digikam. - Click Save metadata on files - Confirm that this title has been set in picture using an external tool, such as exiftool (exiftool -XMP:Title-FR-fr /path/to/picture.jpg). - Set a new value for this title using an external tool (by running exiftool -XMP:Title-FR-fr="new title" /path/to/picture.jpg) - Confirm that this title has really been set in this pictures metadata by using the previous command (exiftool -XMP:Title-FR-fr /path/to/picture.jpg) - Under digikam, select the picture and refresh its metadata from the menu Item > Read again metadata from file. - See that from the right panel / caption / title, title has not changed. Expected results: The title field should display "new title"
Please check again with current Linux AppImage 5.5.0 pre version where some improvements have been done. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzeiVr-byqt5Y0tIRWVWelRJenM Gilles Caulier

The function "Reread Metadata From Imagages" does not work in general. I tried this function via three different ways 1 - item -> Feread Metadata From Images 2 - Album -> Reread... and 3 - Tools -> Maintenance -> check Albums, check Sync Metadata and Database, Sync Direction: From image metadata to database Every time the procedure is done in 0 seconds and nothing has changed. I tried it on Ubuntu 16.04 and on Win 10. Both times with Digikam 5.5.0.
Yes, this is a bug in digiKam-5.5.0. Is already fixed for digiKam-5.6.0. Use Beta AppImage from this download: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0BzeiVr-byqt5Y0tIRWVWelRJenM Maik
Thank you! Works great. It is possible to include the subfolders of an album to the function Ablum -> Reread Metadata from Images?
Domian, >It is possible to include the subfolders of an album to the function Ablum -> >Reread Metadata from Images? This is an other topic, which must refer to a new bugzilla entry. Please create a new report. Gilles Caulier
