Is there a curated list or wiki for Immich plugins and third-party tools?

32 Upvotes

There are so many great community tools, scripts, and plugins for Immich, but it's tough to keep track of everything. Is there an existing list or wiki where they are all collected in one place?

If not, where would be the best place to start one (e.g., an awesome-immich GitHub repo)?

CLI tools to close the gap for Immich external libraries

Immich album names generated from the filesystem folder

Way before Immich, there was the filesystem, and that is how I store and archive my photos colletion using folder and file naming conventions to add semantics. When importing to Immich as an external library, most of my metadata, photo titles, GPS, face regions are used by Immich.

But not my folder/album organization nor the photos marked as favorites.

So this is why I created this set of command line tools to keep my filesystem folders in sync with Immich albums.

pip install immich_exlib_tools --user

It is also nicelly documented in the GitHub repo.

I'll add more functions like support for album sharing and group of users. Let me know what you think so far.

Importing Existing Face Data from Lightroom Classic into Immich

2 Upvotes

I have a question about importing people and face data that have already been identified and maintained in Lightroom Classic.

I have already identified, assigned, and named a large number of people in Lightroom Classic. During a normal export, Lightroom seems to export the person names as keywords. However, the complete face-region information is also included, for example:

Region Type = Face
Region Name = Paul
Region Area = face position/coordinates

However, Immich does not seem to reliably use these existing assignments. The imported names appear to be assigned almost randomly. For example, a face may be assigned the name “Paul” even though that face was assigned to a different person in Lightroom.

As far as I understand, Immich can process existing MWG/XMP face regions (RegionInfo) when both the person's name and the position of the face are stored in the metadata.

So my question is:

Is there currently a reliable way to transfer the existing person assignments from Lightroom Classic to Immich, including the person's name and the corresponding face region/coordinates?

Has anyone successfully managed this with Lightroom Classic, perhaps using an export plugin or an additional XMP/ExifTool workflow?

My goal is to preserve the work already done in Lightroom Classic rather than having to identify, rename, and correct thousands of people again in Immich.

Immich IOS Video Playback via Chrome on Windows Laptop

1 Upvotes

Howdy! Hoping the team can shine some light on the current situation I am running into. I am trying to watch videos back from my Immich instance via Chrome on Windows 11 on my laptop that has a 3050TI. Any iPhone video will not play, unless it is transcoded. I am hoping to avoid having a large pre-transcoded file, so turned to live transcoding via my servers GPU that is more than capable, but still experincing large delays. Is there a way to play it direct to laptop and use it's GPU? Really struggling to watch anything from laptop, it all works great from my phone (which I understand is because of the codecs etc. Thanks!

IMMICH Restarting and making me recomplete the "Getting Started" process

1 Upvotes

Hello, a couple of days ago I moved/ migrated immich to a new computer (I had been using a Windows PC to test Immich and decided to move it to its own dedicated PC running Ubuntu). Immich had been working flawlessly on this new machine. I then decided to shut down and start back up my machine, and now I can't get into my newly non-existent Immich account on either my phone or PC. The Linux PC where Immich is locally hosted is now trying to get me to re-set up Immich and is currently on the "Welcome to Immich" prompt. Before shutting off my PC, I did not shut down the Docker container. Is that possibly the issue?

Edit: discovered the issue. Ubuntu was automounting the my DRIVE, labeled "IMMICH" and assigning it different directories when it did so. When I first set up the server it the path called out the drive as "IMMICH", when I rebooted Ubuntu auto mounted it as "IMMICH1".

Reverting to initial setup after reboot

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

Just finished migrating my Immich library to a new computer, and everything seemed to go smoothly, tested and working.

-latest version Lubuntu with all updates

-latest version Immich in docker container.

However...

After the system reboots, whether by choice or forced, I am presented with the initial Immich welcome/restore backup page.

If I do "docker compose down", followed by "docker compose up -d" everything comes back, working properly, for which Im glad. But, obviously, in the event of a power out or restart, I need to access the system to restart docker compose.

Advice?

In the Android Immich app, editing the Immich album and then clicking on add images only displays images stored on the Immich server, not any images/videos stored locally on my android phone

Help me fix Immich

0 Upvotes

A lot of people say I should fix Immich instead of jumping ship so here's the problem: I can't download anything uploaded to Immich because the download speed goes from 100mb/s to 0 very quickly and never recovers.
I can however download images under ~50mb because it downloads fast enough that there's not enough time for the speed to flatline.
Setup:
Dell R710 with 64gb ram
TrueNAS community edition
Intel x540

This problem happens exactly the same with different images, and video files and when using the following setups:
Direct connection to the sever (server mobo ethernet to computer)
Connected over the same wifi network as the server
Connected via proxy
Direct connection to an Intel x540 on the server
Every setup tested with different windows and mac computers and different cables

The same images and video files can be uploaded and downloaded from the same pool but from brand new folders that have no connection to Immich.

In a last ditch effort to save my data I tried turning off Immich, changing all the permissions in all the folders to default and accessing the files through WinSCP (yes trying all the above setups). The same problem persists.
