v1.114.0

Highlights

Welcome to release v1.114.0 of Immich. Who doesn't love a juicy release on a Friday? This release focuses on additional enhancements and bug fixes for recent new features. Please find some of the highlights below:

• Tag improvements (including Lightroom support)
• Import faces from EXIF and XMP sidecars (Digikam format)
• Better handling of timezones
• Upload panel **New look**
• Automatic database reconnection

Tag improvements

Since the last release, when we introduced support for tags, we have made a few changes based on your feedback.

• We now support reading from HierarchicalSubject. Values will be parsed as hierarchical tags, with | as a delimiter.
• We now only read from Keywords as a fallback when no hierarchical tag information is available
• We have fixed a bug where you could not remove the last tag from EXIF/XMP.

NOTE: these changes apply to the metadata extraction job. To apply them to your photos and videos, re-run metadata extraction.

Import faces from metadata

This release adds the ability to read face metadata in Digikam format during metadata extraction, increasing interoperability with other software and laying the foundation for faces from sources other than machine learning.

Note that there are certain limitations with these faces. These limitations may be removed in a later release:

• Assets that contain face metadata are skipped during face detection
• Faces from metadata are not considered during facial recognition
• Faces from metadata are grouped into people based on name
• Only face metadata in Digikam format is supported

You can enable this feature by going to Administration > Metadata Settings.

Better handling of timezones

This version fixes some issues related to how timezone offsets are parsed and how timezones and offsets are displayed. The offset is now parsed correctly for photos and videos taken with the "+00:00" offset (e.g., several African countries, Iceland, Portugal/UK/Ireland in winter).

If you notice that the "+00:00" offset is not shown correctly, please re-run the "Extract Metadata" job on all photos and videos.

Upload panel

The upload panel has a new look! It works the same as before, except that duplicates are no longer automatically cleared from the queue. They will remain behind, along with a clickable icon, that links to the deduped image.

Automatic database reconnection

Previously, when the connection to the database was interrupted for any reason (restart, timeout, network interruption, etc.), the server would never reconnect. Restoring the connection required a container restart. Now, the server will automatically try to reconnect every 5 seconds indefinitely.
