rienvanham I'm not sure if I understand you problem correct, but - yes I'm using ON1 PR too and have no issues with keywords (flat and hierarchical) at all.

If a problem is not reproducible, it's hard to do anything about it.
I have not experienced this and AFAIK no other user reported this.Which gives me nothing to work with.

Just ignore it. When IMatch was still doing something at the time you close it, it will finish it on the next start.
There may be update delays between 10 and 60 seconds. IMatch does not spent time on always updating the UI but on doing the work.

General Discussion and Questions / The application is busy
Last post by frankdarwin - October 04, 2024, 10:48:45 PM
Before I close IM, I always wait until "Info & Activity" shows me that the "DB idle time", "Idle time" and "Entries in queue" tell me that IM is actually no longer doing anything.

Unfortunately, I overlooked the fact that there is an indication in the status bar that IM is still busy (see attachment)

Why does "Info & Activity" show me that nothing seems to be happening while IM is still busy with some activity?

Hi Mario,
it is possible that this problem is based on a different, for me inexplicable behavior of IM.

After restarting IM everything was fine again.

As usual, I write back all metadata if I think it is necessary for the last changes I made.

In the current case, I had 12 files whose metadata had not yet been saved (all MP4). I have therefore written back all the affected metadata. When I close IM, I always wait until "Info & Activity" shows me that the "DB Idle Time", "Idle Time" and "Entries in Queue" tell me that IM is no longer actually doing anything.

Please consider this issue closed.

I will create a new topic under the subject "The application is busy".

I have never noticed anything like this and neither are there any open bug tickets or similar reports.
I use custom sorting personally quite often and it always "sticks".

Which View are you in?
Did you use filters when applying the custom sort?
Are filters active now?
Any detail matters.

I have noticed several times that the user-defined sorting does not seem to work properly.

The following has happened:

I sort 400 photos with the "Custom" setting. After finishing work, I close IM, back up the database and photos, restart IM and realize that the user-defined sorting I had previously made was not saved.

What is going wrong?

When IMatch imports XMP face regions with a "tag", if creates the person with the "tag" name and confirms the face. Assuming the other software / device knows what it does.

For Apple devices there have been a number of "issues" Apple silently fixed / worked-around on their devices, but which caused problems as soon as you had the chutzpah to open an image taken on an iDevice with another software or on another platform. Face regions with a width/height of zero come to mind, for example.

Quote from: Mario on October 04, 2024, 02:34:26 PMIf you have 20,000 unconfirmed faces, face recognition was on at some point in time.

I had the situation where I was importing files that had already had face annotations from other software (Apple in my case) which cluttered up my face recognition and created many unconfirmed faces.

Could that be a source of 20,000 unconfirmed? (and a potential ongoing source of more even after you cleanup your current iMatch database).
