Is it possible to have support for Canon RAW images?

[m.savazzi]

One point: there are some italian string missing :

Saved filter wizard settings -> Filtri salvati
Show 250 random pictures -> Mostra 250 immagini a caso

English

Code:

msgctxt "#30654"
msgid "Show %s random pictures"
msgstr ""

msgctxt "#30655"
msgid "Saved filter wizard settings"
msgstr ""

Italian
[code]
msgctxt "#30654"
msgid "Show %s random pictures"
msgstr "Mostra %s immagini a caso"

msgctxt "#30655"
msgid "Saved filter wizard settings"
msgstr "Filtri salvati"
[code]

Does they contain EXIF, IPTC or XMP tags?
And is XBMC able to display them?
Then yes, otherwise no.

One point: there are some italian string missing :

Please enter them in Transifex

not sure if the tags are INSIDE the file or in a separate file.
For all the pictures I have there is the file
image001.cr2
and a file
image001.xmp

And is XBMC able to display them?
Then yes, otherwise no.

YES, XBMC shows them correctly

weird they were already in but not present in the distribution file

1) Translation: It takes between 2 till 4 weeks until the entered translations are available.

2) You can go to the plugin settings and add the picture extension canon uses. In your case cr2.
If the tags are inside then MyPicsDB will display them.

[m.savazzi]

Great, thank you.
I can confirm right now it does skip the CR2 files
I will check with the new settings.

Your list of wishes

I've implemented most requested features like:
- Complex filter possibility
- Central MySQL DB
- Remote access to a NAS

Already in development:
- Global searches are stored. So you don't need to enter them again.

What is still missing?

MyPicsDB 12.3.1

available in my repository.

New:

• Works with Gotham Alpha 10
  
• New Language Files
  

script.module.dialogaddonscan and script.module.myconnpy don't work with Gotham but are/were needed by MyPicsDB.
Increasing their version number and changing xbmc.python to version 2.1.0 didn't work with december Gotham release.
Therefore I decided to include the needed code locally.

Just testing out version 12.3.2 on Linux (Fedora) using Gotham built out of github, I got this traceback:

Code:

Looks like the directory for the skin is case-sensitive (which may not matter on Windows), because things worked after I symlinked "Default" to "default":

Code:

cd ~/.xbmc/addons/plugin.image.mypicsdb/resources/skins
ln -s Default/ default

[Xycl]

Okay then I've to change default to Default within AddonScan.py
Thanks for reporting the problem.

Please try new version from my repo (w/o your symlink).

Question:
What is still missing?

- introducing a hierarchy browser on landcode, provence, city and sub-location
- introducing a smartplaylist, where pictures can be selected (folder-wise or using the MPD database) including AND music can be selected (folder-wise or using the XBMC music DB). Eg pictures from an concert where you have been can be shown with the latest CD music
- improving the selection window for 'period' . I'm using Aeon Nox as skin, and it works terrible now

Not sure if this is just a bug in my setup or a missing feature, but when I lasted tested a very old version of this plugin that worked under Dharma (just moved my system to pre-Gotham) it would show the videos interleaved with the photos by date. After I did a full re-scan of my photos/videos, now videos only appear under "videos". I liked the option of viewing the videos and photos all taken on the same date. Can this be restored?

This is a problem of Aeon Nox and Aeon MQ 5.
The skins seem to ignore the type flag of the numeric dialog.

Code:

dialog = xbmcgui.Dialog()
d = dialog.numeric(1, ......

The parameter "1" of method numeric is the type flag.

Types:
0 : ShowAndGetNumber (default format: #)
1 : ShowAndGetDate (default format: DD/MM/YYYY)
2 : ShowAndGetTime (default format: HH:MM)
3 : ShowAndGetIPAddress (default format: #.#.#.#)[/code]

Videos: There are no EXIF tags ( or whatever) within videos. What should be used for creation date?

I think the previous version used Unix mtime: http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/...-of-a-file I know it's imperfect and could be inaccurate, but when my digital camera (or phone) creates a file and I copy it over to my HTPC it preserves the original creation time as the last "mtime". So it's pretty close to when the video was taken. So on Unix (Linux and presumably MacOS X) use mtime, on Windows I'm not sure how it reads/stores time.
