Description kde-apps.org 2025-11-07 10:48:00 UTC 
SUMMARY
Face boxes on already processed pictures are moved to the upper left corner, effectively losing the content. In affected photos, all face boxes end up in the upper left corner. Preview images are reduced to a narrow bar. No user action involved.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
App images of Digikam version 8.6 and up; also dockerized versions 8.7 and 8.8m all running on Debian Bookworm

This problem has never been reported before, and I can't think of a possible cause. If the metadata is being written into the images, please upload a sample image with these coordinates.

Please provide us a sample to test as Maik ask in comment #1

Sadly I have no sample at the moment as this happens randomly and not all the time. All data is stored IN the image file, no sidecar files are used. I will get back as soon as the problem shows up again. I don't think this ever happened with Version <8.6.
