Is there an import filter function? The closest thing would be: "Camera -> Import filter". I would like to load e.g. only jpg,gif,tif,png and filter out eps,psd. Is this possible and have I overlooked the correct setting or does the program not offer any import filters? Camera import filters do not work. There are no steps in that sense - I had searched for a possibility and found possible settings that did not do what I wanted. No setting is able to exclude files For example, files such as eps, psd and others may not be displayed. Minimally desired would be that these images/templates do not appear with preview in the DB SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Windows 10 22H2 digiKam 8.0.0 I use the program locally without a camera and actually also without photos in that sense. In my case it's more textures and 3D model screenshots. Just in case the question comes up why I want to filter esp,psd
The camera filter function works without any problems. Create a new filter, use the mimetype filter, select the file types you only want to import. The important thing is to select your filter in the main view in the status bar. Maik

It may be that I have created them in the wrong place "Cameras -> Import Filter".
Please try again, also use a newer digiKam version, there were some bug fixes in 8.0.0 regarding the import filters. There may have been further bug fixes later. Add the filter with “+ Add”. I checked it again here with digiKam-8.4.0 under Windows, it works as expected. Maik
Created attachment 169643 [details] image.png I am now on version 8.3.0 - the version chosen by digiKam itself. Add filter in the settings ? [image: image.png] [image: image.png] [image: image.png] Should my created filters then appear in the menu? Or am I looking in the wrong place? Or do these camera filters not apply to local files?

Created attachment 169646 [details] image.png Ok, so I'm already in the right place to create the filters. However, the filters I have created do not appear in the status bar filter option. The title says "Running Filters at Download". I am not downloading anything anywhere but the files are stored locally on the hard disk, is that the problem?

The last image in comment 9 is correct. Now you just have to select your filter in the status bar in the ComboBox in the import view. Maik
Created attachment 169649 [details] image.png Then I'm already in the right place. The dialog for the filter selection does not offer me any of the self-created filters, only predefined ones I suppose. [image: image.png] Am Mo., 20.

You are in the digiKam main view, not in the import window! Maik
Maybe we are talking past each other, you want to filter out images in the albums that have already been imported into digiKam? The camera import filter that we suggest only applies during import with the import tool. Maik
If you want to remove certain mime types directly in digiKam albums, then open this setting: https://docs.digikam.org/en/setup_application/views_settings.html#mime-types-settings Enter mime types that you don't want with a "-" in front of them, i.e. -eps -psd" Maik
Created attachment 169650 [details] attachment-275612-0.html Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to achieve. So the subsequent filtering doesn't work then? Then I have to copy the image files to be ignored into a folder that digiKam ignores. Am Mo., 20.

Ok, glad we were able to clear it up. To explain again, the camera filter filters the import tool view so that only desired files are physically copied. With mimetype filter, digiKam ignores the file types marked with a "-" that are otherwise known to digiKam in the database. Physically, they are still present in the file system, they are just no longer displayed in digiKam. Maik
