SUMMARY When I tried to let digikam 7.9.0 scan for GPR images in an album, it does not include them. I could not see any gopro raw images, *.GPR files I thought that digikam was able to detect and include those since new version 0.20 of libraw. But, maybe not the *.GPR files? I tested this using digiKam-7.9.0-20220926T033221-x86-64.appimage on this machine: Operating System: Ubuntu 22.10 KDE Plasma Version: 5.25.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.98.0 Qt Version: 5.15.6 Kernel Version: 5.19.0-18-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: X11 Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-2600K CPU @ 3.40GHz Memory: 15,6 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 960/PCIe/SSE2
It is not a problem for us to add the RAW file type *.GPR. If you have a sample for download, I did not find a link on the web quickly. Maik
I uploaded to dropbox an example of a raw Gopro image, GOPR0006.GPR, made by a Gopro Hero 11 camera. https://www.dropbox.com/s/1fas6ackb5g7uyt/GOPR0006.GPR?dl=0
Maik, I think it will not be enough to add the type mime. GoPro raw files support need extra code for Libraw : Gilles

Gilles is right, Libraw cannot readily open the file. Maik
For the libraw README.GoPro.txt: I. GPR SDK comes with (patched) Adobe DNG SDK source (v1.4 but outdated). This DNG SDK is *NOT* compatible with LibRaw since 0.20 due to internals change . II. So, you need to patch latest Adobe DNG SDK v1.4 (dated 2015), this version is available from Adobe: http://download.adobe.com/pub/adobe/dng/dng_sdk_1_4.zip or use Adobe DNG SDK v1.6 (most likely, this apply for v1.5 too, but not tested/checked). digiKam includes libraw in core, not as separated dependency. DNG DSK is include too in digiKam core. It's the last 1.5 version. In other word, add GPR support will be a puzzle a there is a risk to make digiKam instable with all others RAW files. So i close this file as INTENTIONAL. We can revise later this file if and only if the GPR support will be simplified and safe. Best regards Gilles Caulier
