synology photos

There was always an issue with RAW (DNG, in my case) formats being supported by Synology. I hoped it would be rectified with Synology Photos, especially when all possible RAW formats are in their supported format list. However, I still can't view DNG files on Synology Photos. Any help would be...

Hi there, I'm new to the forum and new to Synology devices.. From an old WD myCloud that is not supported anymore, I've migrated to a Synology DS120. Installation went fine, however, when copying files it gets difficult. From the old system, i've had folders like Pictures, Music and Video...

When I upload a folder to Synology Photos using drag and drop, 95% of the time, the app auto sorts these folders into a Year/month folder format. This has saved me a ton of time, and I LOVE this feature and the app as a whole. Occasionally it hangs up while loading, so i have to babysit the...

I am not seeing a way to share a folder within Synology Photos, only single photos. Can others confirm this as well?

Hi, In Synology Photos (shared space), Automatically Created Albums (People, Places, Tags, Videos, Recently Added) aren't shared with "downloader" users or groups. I have to give a full access permission to a group or user to give access to these albums, but it give also access to others...

I use Synology photos to store pics from my editing job and personal. When you open photos in starts by showing every photo the you've stored whether they are in an album or not. Is there a way to disable it so it doesn't show album photos. Also it doesn't have any indication if a photo is in an...

When photos are backed up using the Android Synology Photos app, by default they are stored in your Personal Space under the MobileBackup folder and then by the folder(s) from the phone. The backup then creates folders by year and month, which one would expect to be the creation date, but...

Hi all, I have latest Plex (manual update) and would like to add Synology Photos folder to Plex library. When I go to first folder under "Photo" I see nothing more: and once finished no files (photo, videos) are detected. Videos working in Plex are in different folder ( Media ): I...

I am running all latest versions of DSM 7, Synology Photos, and iOS Photos app. Can anyone else confirm if and when you uploading a video from your iPhone to Synology Photos personal space, if the GEO Location data is not coming over as well? I see the other meta data such as date created is...

I recently upgraded my DS416play from DSM 6 to DSM 7, and one of the enforced changes is that it has installed Synology Photos. This seems to have had the knock-on effect that my 'photo' shared location which contains approx 727GB of assorted photo related material (including camera RAWs...

Hi there, So I had an earlier issue that my connection to Synology Photos was super slow locally. This was because I was using an external address to access the server instead of an internal IP, but in terms of keeping the connection the same for the mobile app, it was required for me to keep...

I have set this up and log in is via the local IP address, e.g. 10.1.1.0 etc. I have hopefully correctly set a firewall route that only allows access to the NAS on the LAN. So, my question is this, please, I cannot seem to find the answer, when not on the local network, so not on Wifi or...

Still searching.... I migrated my Apple libraries (still a bit screwy) and have found a ton of duplicates... want to try a thinning. Not worried if if fails as I have not deleted the Apple libraries but would like to avoid any additional pain in this process. Is there within Synology Photos...a...

Hey all! I just picked up a ds920+ and I'm looking to take gigabytes of various iPhoto archives from different Mac computers and put them on the new NAS and to stop using iPhoto due to it's inability to work with a NAS at all. I came across this thread, import iPhoto with dsm7 that said...

Just wondering if this is happening only to me. When I log in to Synology Photos I get the Shared space page: After that, I need to manually switch to Personal space. And on top of it, I get the folder view although my last setting was timeline view (so switch it manually again, every time):

Noobie.....Just can't seem to be able to "share" a photo... send it in an email or text from my Synology photos . Choices are only to allow access .... Am I missing a 'duh' thing here? (can't one attach it ?)

My share links from Synology Photos are redirecting to an IP address that I don't recognize, looks like it belongs to a Fios router. I copy the link, set it to Anyone Can Download but the link ends up in a different IP address. I haven't had this problem prior to the change to Synology Photos.

I've just moved nearly all my photos to Photos and have culled thru all the Facial Recognition/People to properly name/tag them etc. I do have incorrect time/date stamps on a lot of my photos (most of these were originally scanned in by my parents). That said, I've gone in and tweaked the...

SLOW I use the DS918+ model, not the slowest of them all, and yet Synology Photos is SLOW AS HELL Moving to the next photo by clicking "right" arrow on a laptop keyboard is SLOW. I wait 2-5 seconds per image. What am I waiting for? Safari keeps complaining that "this application uses too much...
