Hi I have some images, jpg, taken with my compactcamera, that almost only Dolphin and Gwenview are abel to display/detect. Digikam and the kde opendialog among others are not able to find them. Who can I send some pictures to?

Can you please post the names of the two files?

Klar for vedhogst (1).jpg
Klar for vedhogst (2).jpg
and so on..

and
Mitt første tre felt med motorsag (1).jpg
and so on...

The whitespaces (" ") and brackets ("()") could cause these problems (and maybe the "ø").

Could be, but shouldn't. I have plenty of files (photos and others) named in such a way without problems. IF it's indeed a character problem, it sounds like jerik's system is using a locale setting that can't handle them.

Im running Arch linux, so maby I've done something wrong setting it up:

from my rc.conf:

Code: Select all

LOCALE="nb_NO.utf8"
KEYMAP="no-latin1"


But, I think my locales are ok
And, I do also have hundreds, if not thousands, of pictures with spaces, "(", ")" and æ,ø,å's

Please ensure the files have the correct mimetype.

How do I do that?

I believe the "file" command in Konsole, with the file name as an argument will provide this information.

$ file Mitt*1*
Mitt første tre felt med motorsag (1).jpg: JPEG image data, JFIF standard 1.01

There should be no reason why the files are not displayed then. If a file dialog is involved, does it display a filter and if so what is it?
