If a picture has the name mohamedmalik.JPG, when metadata is written to the image it will create a new file in the same directory called mohamedmalik.JPG.XMP. This file contains all the new and previously written metadata, leaving the image untouched. This is very useful when writing metadata to RAW files.
Hvis et billede har navnet mohamedmalik.JPG, så vil billedets metadata blive gemt i filen mohamedmalik.JPG.XMP i samme mappe. Denne fil indeholder alle de nye og tidligere gemte metadata, sådan at billedet selv ikke bliver berørt. Dette er meget nyttigt, når der skrives metadata til RAW-filer.

Brug XMP Sidecar i digiKam 2beta 3

Fra Mohammed Maliks blog, 18. marts 2011

Hvad betyder XMP Sidecar? Det betyder, at nå metadata til et foto gemmes, så laves der en XMP-fil sammen med fotoet. Derved gemmes billedets metadata i den nye XMP-fil, som sammenkædes med billedet, i stedet for at skrive metadata ind i billedfilen.

Eksempel

Hvis et billede har navnet mohamedmalik.JPG, så vil billedets metadata blive gemt i filen mohamedmalik.JPG.XMP i samme mappe. Denne fil indeholder alle de nye og tidligere gemte metadata, sådan at billedet selv ikke bliver berørt. Dette er meget nyttigt, når der skrives metadata til RAW-filer.

While using XMP sidecar support there are many options available. In-order to use XMP sidecar support you need to configure it.

In digiKam’s main window go to Settings -> Configure digiKam and select the tab Metadata



There are four options available:

  • Write to image only — This option will not use XMP but will write all the metadata directly into the images.
  • Write to XMP sidecar only — No metadata will be written to any images directly but it will write all metadata into a separate XMP file in the same directory as the image.
  • Write to image & XMP sidecar – metadata will be written to both XMP and Image.
  • Write to XMP sidecar to Read-only images only — which means that images which have read, write and execute permissions metadata will be written directly to the image whereas for Read–only images XMP sidecar will be used.
