Hi,

Is there a way to have Gallery2 re-sync its database from the albums folder?
Ideally, look for new/removed images and re-read IPTC data on files that have changed?

Thanks

Adrian

@re-sync: No.
@new images: You could use the reupload module, but there is a issue with the reupload module about exif and iptc data:

Dammn... I've a lot of photos to organise, and I wanted to upload them to Gallery, but then be able to re-sync IPTC data as I go through and update them. I was thinking the easiest way was to simply update the files directly and then have Gallery re-read that data.

Does Gallery have the ability to write IPTC data back to files at all? Maybe I could do the updates via Gallery.

not at the moment. It reads the data and you can display the data.

The map module writes data to the EXIF but that is far as it goes.

Hmmm....

I'm finding that some photos aren't having their IPTC keyword tag data read into the database. I'm uploading the files to the server, then using the Local add. Odd behaviour as some files are reading in ok and others arent, and if I remove/re-add a specific folder then the keywords are added in ok (so doesn't seem to be damaged jpg files or anything).

Will experiment a bit more, but is there any debug log that might help?

I found the debug options, and logged it to a file, but I had some other issues (which may lead to the above). Basically, if I try to add a parent folder, then eventually Gallery would error out. If I added each subfolder individually, they would succeed (except one, which again needed to be added as individual subfolders).

Turning on debug, I get the below in the browser (eventually). I'm guessing its a resource issue, maybe somethine I need to tweak in php.ini
