Download: Select Files and Formats and configure defaults #449
Comments
Sorry for the wait! You are right, need to improve this. Selecting a smaller (resampled) size should be possible as well. Adding a download dialog so that users may select specific file type(s) and size(s) seems necessary. However, this might complicate PhotoPrism for less experienced users as they'll feel unsure what to select. |
It's the only feature missing in PhotoPrism that lead me to find another software... :( |
Good to know that this feature is important for some users. In the future we plan to have something like a public roadmap/feature voting, so that we gain insights which features are most wanted :) |
Maybe the proposed dropdown could contain very few carefully selected options (depending on object type and available formats) and for more there is an Another option could be to allow adding additional options in the user or system settings. Too many options would also slow usage down for advanced users and many average users are even overwhelmed by any options. Probably it would be even better to have one default when clicking download without any further options. E.g. jpeg for images, gif (or mp4?) for moving pictures, mp4 for live pictures, mp4 for videos. Just click download and photoprism provides a good option. |
In a first step, downloads have been refactored:
|
Just ran into this limitation. I made a big selection of photos from the last year that I wanted to make into a calendar. Mix of unedited raws and jpegs. |
Use the regular search with the https://demo.photoprism.org/browse?view=cards&q=album%3Acalifornia We'll add yet another config option / select dialog for this in a future release. |

Hello @lastzero, What do you think about a feature that allows which default file extension when downloading?
It will add a lot of value when using a PWA on an Android Phone (also from other computers) you could download the jpg without going into Edit->Files->Selecting the file->Download which is a bit overwhelming. I highly appreciate your effort 🥇 Thanks! |
@DrDonoso That would probably mean that you would have to treat images and videos differently. Did I understand correctly that you always want to download the original video file, but the JPEG version of images? Or would you prefer to always download (web) compatible formats, i.e. AVC for videos and JPEG for images? Edit: Note that if you always want to download AVC-encoded videos, they may need to be transcoded first, which takes time and therefore delays the download. |
i think there should be a download jpg or png option with multiple selected so you can easily use them for uploading to a blog or other site that doesn't allow heic. |
As a user I would like to specify file types to download so that I can quickly download only images. |
@mordka You can change the types of files that are downloaded under Settings > General > Download: However, I believe there is currently no way to specify that you always want a JPEG file, for example, especially since videos, live photos and animations cannot be converted to JPEG. Other types, such as PNG and vector graphics, may only be available as PNG because the transparency would be lost if converted to JPEG. |
Download of multiple files
So right now whenever you download a single picture, it will download all the files assosiated with this specific one.
This leads to the behavior of downloading a raw+jpeg when you click on the download button.
In firefox for example this gives you two pop-ups to save the file.
In the most situations you only need one type of image. You either want the raw to edit the picture or just the version displayed for whatever.
How about a dropdown?
What about adding a little drop down menu at the side of the button, where you can select what exact file you wish to download?

Make the default file type to download an option (later)
This also has great potential to be an option where the user could set its prefered download file type.
Tho I would NOT include this into this issue / PR. That might be something for later.
@lastzero If you're ok with that I would do the changes and throw it in a PR?
