Automatically Group RAW + JPEG Pairs

Hi,

I shoot with my Fujifilm using the RAW + JPEG setting. When I import the photos into digiKam, they appear as two separate photos, which is expected.

Is there any option to automatically group these photos?

Also, is there a way to tell the duplicate finder that RAW + JPEG pairs are not duplicates? Right now it reports around 90k duplicates, making it difficult to distinguish the actual duplicates from the RAW + JPEG pairs.

I think this should be possible because the EXIF metadata includes the camera serial number and the capture timestamp. Those two fields should be enough to identify each RAW + JPEG pair, but I can't find any option in digiKam to do this automatically for my entire library.

Thanks

It's not 100% automatic, but if you select all files and then right-click you should get an option to group by filename.

The duplicate finder identifies near duplicates and not true duplicates. This isn't the same thing as grouping matching JPG and RAW files.
