Shared digikam database across comouters12/29/2023 ![]() I like this as I can leave the default shortcuts, as well as add my own. DigiKam allows up to 2 keyboard shortcuts to be assigned to each action. I ended up spending several hours to tag and correct the pictures it identified as having faces I should have skipped it until they improve the UI.Į. It's not very stable (crashes when running it), nor accurate (face recognition never is), but it got a lot of false matches and mixed them in with the previous confirmed matches I'd prefer it put new matches in a separate queue for review first. it only can be run across your whole collection (catalog). DigiKam has a facial-recognition system which can be run. In XnView one has to run a batch export in DigiKam you hit Edit, Post-Processing, and adjust the saturation.ĭ. in Imagine Viewer (a different app) pressing shift-G will do it. ![]() neither has a instant way to get a black & white preview of an image. That said, browsing through my collection in DigiKam is usually instantaneous.Ĭ. XnView is much faster initially launching, and sometimes a bit faster browsing.

There is a 'quick access list' which looks like the sets in XnView, but I can't seem to use it while tagging - I'm really not sure what it's for (maybe it's a work in progress?). tagging is easier in XnView you can create tag sets/collections and easily see them in a small area of the screen.ĭigiKam only seems to be able to show the tag tree during tagging, which doesn't fit on my screen without scrolling. star rating + color + tags) which XnView simply cannot do.Ī. Note I've never really used Lightroom (but I have seen demos of it's capabilities) so this is mostly about my DAM needs and comparing my experience with XnView MP and a few simpler image viewers.ĭigiKam is mostly what I expect in a DAM with great search capabilities, including multiple filters at once (e.g. I was using XnView MP as a DAM, but its search capabilities are very rudimentary.Īfter a bit of a search for a new DAM (see ), I've chosen DigiKam, and have been using version 4.12 on Windows (it also runs on OSX and Linux (KDE)) for a few weeks.
