Sudo add-apt-repository ppa:philip5/extra Run the following commands in Terminal to install digiKam 5.6 on Ubuntu 17.04, Ubuntu 16.10, Ubuntu 16.04, Ubuntu 15.10, Ubuntu 15.04, Ubuntu 14.10, Ubuntu 14.04 and other Ubuntu Derivatives: Under the new Sidecars tab in the Metadata part of the configuration wizard you can specify any additional extension that you want digiKam to recognise as a sidecar.Īnother important change done for this new version is to restore the geolocation bookmarks feature which did not work with bundle versions of digiKam (AppImage, MacOS, and Windows). Now this is also possible for MySQL databases with 5.6.0.Įarlier changes to the grouping behaviour proved that digiKam users have quite diverse workflows – so with the current change we try to represent that diversity.Īnother new capability is to recognise additional sidecars. For technical reasons only SQLite database were shrunk to this smaller size in 5.5.0 release. Besides obvious data safety improvements this can free up quite a lot of space in the digiKam databases. There are many settings to customize the format, the codec, the resolution, and the transition (as for ex the famous Kens-Burn effect).Īlready in 5.5.0 release, the tool dedicated to tests for database integrity and obsolete information have been improved. The generated video file can be view in any media player, as phones, tablets, Blue Ray reader, etc. It allows you to create a video slide with a selection of photos or albums.
