Itās quite impressive how much the Immich folks have achieved in a relatively short period of time! Iām glad you found something that works for you :)
Ha, hiring only account managers š It does have search and maps, but they are a bit rudimentary right now. Also I have to find some sample geolocated photos to put in the demo, it doesnāt have any right now.
Iād say Immich has quite a few more features, with the primary focus of backing up your media from your mobile devices with a more āmanagedā approach (it takes care of storing and organizing the files).
Photofield is more minimalistic (both in terms of user interface and as an application) and more useful if you have an existing directory structure that you want to view as a gallery. It also pulls a few neat tricks to make it work smoothly with up to ~600k files.
Does this only show these foss_photo_libraries and your local photos?
Iām not sure what you mean. foss_photo_libraries is a comparison table of different apps someone else maintains, but I thought it was a useful resource. The photos in the demo are a subset of the open images dataset and a couple of other samples that I picked for demo purposes.
If you install it locally you can point it to a folder and it should use each subfolder as an album, or you can configure custom albums.
Does it support jpegXL?
Yes actually, but I donāt have many files to test it, so Iām not sure how well it works. If you do Iād be interested to hear how it works for you. It uses FFmpeg to on-the-fly convert anything it canāt read natively.
Iād love a seamless zoom feature for images in the browser. I use imagus but Iād love if the popup window could zoom to be bigger than the browser window.
You can zoom by using the mouse wheel or by pinching to zoom if thatās what you mean? You should be able to zoom pretty much as much as you want. If youāre in the main view where the mouse wheel scrolls photos up and down you can hold Ctrl (Cmd?) to zoom instead.
Unfortunately I have no idea about the Unraid ecosystem, so Iām not sure whatās the best way to approach that. It seems like you can run Docker images, so thatās probably one way to go? Let me know if you get it to work!
Depends on what you mean by sharing, but if you put all your photos on a local NAS and run this on it for example, then everyone with access to it would be able to see them through a browser.
Ah, I see! This is more of a solution for viewing existing photos, itās not a fully fledged multi-user photo management solution.
If you had family members access and share photos via a file share though, you could use this to set up a common gallery that everyone could access via the browser.
No concrete plans for auth yet, but thereās an feature request for this. I didnāt really want to give a sense of false security with a half-baked solution.
For uploading, I thought about it briefly and it could be interesting. How would you expect it to work?
I imagine you would configure a sort of a target folder structure, then it would dump all uploads based in that structure? Or fully managed like GPhotos/Immich where the app hashes, dedupes and owns the files directly? š¤
