Re: Importing Color Labels from Adobe Bridge to Digikam

Hi,

Can you share with us using a cloud service storage some sample with
different values to see the corresponding metadata from Bridge to re-route
in digiKam ?

If your images have xmp sidecars, don't forget to also join these files.

Best regards
