--- Comment #9 from willem <whob...@gmail.com> ---
Ran the app I built.

Opening dialogue says:

Work in progress
This version of KPhotoAlbum has substantial changes to the index.xml file
format!
Make sure you have a backup of your database!
Be prepared to re-create any changes that you make (if we have to fix the file
format)...

When the app was gathering data I followed with journalctl -f. 
No errors were  showing up in the log. In fact: no kphotoalbum messages were
showing up at all. Even when the app showed this error (translated) : 
Errors extracting video thumbnails
Error was: unknown 

stil no log message appeared.)

I pressed OK.

Then a message appeared telling me (translated): not all video thumbnails could
be extracted. Either the file is damaged or very short. Etc...

I pressed OK.

Then again I got:
Errors extracting video thumbnails
Error was: unknown 

Pressed OK again.

The media scan proceeded.

The message:

Errors extracting video thumbnails
Error was: unknown 

reappeared. Even though I did not press OK (I was clicking somewhere else at
that moment, kphotoalbum was losing focus) that error messages disappeared.
Still no journal message.

BTW: 
- The scan was very much slower then WITH the log errors.
- At times the scan dialogue would say: kphotoalbum is not responding
- though no messages in the log showed up, the terminal from which I started
kphotoalbum many messages did appear, too many to copy here, but some recurring
messages were:
-- Warning: Directory Image, entry 0x0111: Strip 2477 is outside of the data
area; ignored.
-- Error: Directory Sony1 with 7168 entries considered invalid; not read.
-- Warning: Directory Canon has an unexpected next pointer; ignored.
-- kphotoalbum.ImageManager: "Unable to convert string \"\"to double (for file
[...]
-- qt.gui.imageio.jpeg: Unsupported marker type 0x7e (or other numbers)
-- qt.imageformats.tiff: "Unknown field with tag 50341 (0xc4a5) encountered"
-- Error: Directory Panasonic with 14080 entries considered invalid; not read
-- Warning: Directory SonyMinolta, entry 0x0088: Data area exceeds data buffer,
ignoring it.
-- Invalid SOS parameters for sequential JPEG
-- kphotoalbum.ImageManager: "Unable to convert string \"N/A\"to double (for
file [...]
-- Error: XMP Toolkit error 203: Duplicate property or field node
-- Warning: Failed to decode XMP metadata
-- qt.gui.imageio.jpeg: Unsupported marker type 0x53

Eventually the scan finished without error dialogues.

So, from what I can see the change did solve the issue of the error messages in
the logs (and the crashes at start up).

Is this helpfull at all?
Only trying to help.
