            Bug ID: 446489
           Summary: Single/unified xmp for raw and jpeg instead of two
                    separate .xmp
           Product: digikam
           Version: 7.4.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Other
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: Metadata-Sidecar
          Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: tom3...@arcor.de
  Target Milestone: ---

When assigning a Tag to a raw picture, DigiKam creates an sidecar file which
includes the raw file ending, e.g. D80_1234.nef.xmp
If there is a corresponding jpg another (D80_1234.jpg.xmp) sidecar is produced
when metadata for this is edited.

If there is a "generic" sidecar file (e.g. D80_1234.xmp) digiKam uses this one
as combined xmp for the raw and the jpg.
I propose a feature: Setting for "Create single xmp for raw and jpg", which
would change the behaviour in all functions which create / update .xmp features
to not include the file-type in the .xmp file name.
This would require to automatically update the metadata shown of all pictures
related to this xmp if this is changed. Example:
For D80_1234.jpg the star rating is changed. This is written to D80_1234.xmp,
which would trigger that the star rating shown for D80_1234.nef would also need
to be updated (and accordingly for other metadata).
