The program will run without +them. See the INSTALL file for details. + +If a THM file with the same name as the video is present, it will be used to +generate a thumbnail for the video. If not, if ffmpegthumbnailer is installed, +Rapid Photo Downloader will use it to attempt to extract a thumbnail from the +video. THM files are not downloaded. + +For now, sequence values are shared between the downloads of videos and photos. +There may be an option to have two sets of sequence numbers in a future release. + +Due to the number of changes in the code, it is possible that regressions in the +photo downloading code may have been introduced. + +This is the first release to use version 0.2.x of the pyexiv2 library. The +most immediate benefit of this change is that thumbnail images from Nikon and +other brand cameras can be displayed. This fixes bugs #369640 and #570378. + +Please note pyexiv2 0.2.x requires exiv2 0.1.9 or above. + +Rapid Photo Downloader will still work with pyexiv2 0.1.x. However it will not +be able to display the thumbnails of some brands of camera. + +If Rapid Photo Downloader detects version 0.18.1 or higher of the exiv2 +library, it will download Panasonic's RW2 files. If it detects version 0.18.0 or +higher of the exiv2 library, it will download Mamiya's MEF files. For Rapid +Photo Downloader to be able to detect which version of the exiv2 library your +system has, it must either be running pyexiv2 >= 0.2.0, or have exiv2 installed. + +Fixed bug #483222: sometimes images could not be downloaded to NTFS partitions. +This fix was a welcome side effect of using GIO to copy images, instead of +relying on the python standard libary. + +Error message headings in the Error Log are now displayed in a red font. + +Program settings and preferences can be reset using a new command line option. + +Program preferences are now more thoroughly checked for validity when the +program starts. + +Further work was done to fix bug #505492, to handle cases where the system +notification system is not working properly. + + Version 0.1.3 ------------- 2010-01-22 Fixed bug #509348: When both the backup and "Delete images from image device -upon download completion" options are selected, the program should only delete +upon download completion" options are selected, the program will only delete an image from the image device if it was both downloaded to the download folder and backed up.
