SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: 6.8.0-104036-tuxedo KDE Plasma Version: libkf5plasma5:amd64 5.115.0-5 KDE Frameworks Version: I don't use kde. I find this e.g. this package though: kded6 6.6.0 Qt Version: No idea, I don't think this is relevant
This is a known bug in digiKam-8.4.0 (Bug 490611). When scanning a new item for the first time, the rating and date values are not written correctly to the DB. Re-read the metadata of the items in question. The bug is fixed in digiKam-8.5.0. Maik
