ThumbsPlus v10 Questions / XMPNames and Userfields confused

« on: 2018-03-23 08:27:24 »

Since several days my T10-System is confused at the  automatic Import of xmp-/EXIF-Metadata into userfields. Seems that there is a change in the spelling/syntax of the Metadata fields. For example there was a xmp-Field spelling "FStop", now it is "F_Stop" or "GPSLongitude" now is "Longitude" etc. Is there any actual list of the Metadata fields with the exact spelling/syntax?
Attached Screenshot of my actual userfields Design and the "translation table" userfieldsinfo.

ThumbsPlus v10 Questions / T10 Build 4007: Limit for most recent used Keywords?

« on: 2016-01-20 00:29:41 »

The List of most recent used Keywords in Thumbnail/Keywords/Assign Keywords seems endless. Can i limit the length of the List? I come from T7, and i remember, that i limited the list to the last 16 Entries (somewhere in the T7-options).
Workaround: delete in thumbs.ini file under [Mru Keywords] the entries with a number > [individual limit], for example 16.

ThumbsPlus v7-v9 Questions / Database Conversion Thumbsplus 7 to 9: Store thumbnails in F

« on: 2014-12-05 20:48:38 »

I converted the T+-dtabase from T7 (MS-Access-format) to T9 with the option "store thumbnails in files". I hoped to shrink the database size (nearly 1,8 GB in T7 with 37600 thumbnails near the 2 GB-limit of MS-Access)).
Instead of this hope: the databe in T9 (.tpdb8) wwas LARGER then before (2 GB). I openend the databse in MS-Access and found an OLE-Field "Thumbnail" in the "Thumbnail"-Table. I exported the table to a new Test-Database, deleted the field from the tabel and comperssd the database. Result: this OLE-Field needs about 1,2 GB space, more than 60% percent of the total database!
So obviously the thumbnails are stored in the database AND in the several subfolders of "tpdb_files". So the procedure makes no sense for me:-(
Now i can try the follwing: running a python script as in the tipps and tricks section ( http://forums.cerious.com/forum/index.php?mode=thread&id=484 ) or make the import a second time and then the python script. Anny tipp or help?
