rene Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 Ok i will give it a try But can't this be included in daminion, so Daminion could do that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mammut Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 But can't this be included in daminion, so Daminion could do that Yeah, it would way better than editing batch files. I thought that it's not a big thing to copy some tags from another tag group at import or rescan. I mean, Daminion is already using exiftool to read the tags, or no? So it's just one option more.

Murat Posted January 14, 2014 Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 We added support for reading MWG Region Faces. So starting from the next update your Picasa faces will be imported to Daminion. Without headaches with command line and exiftool... But you need to write Picasa faces to XMP using "Tools > Experimental > Write Faces..."

rene Posted January 14, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 14, 2014 great thanks. btw. the xmp files are the option to save in picasa.ini files right, the other would be the tags within the files right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rene Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 can't wait for todays release Does the support of the MWG-Regions means, that I can update to the most rescent picasa version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rene Posted January 15, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 ok, I can't get it to work. In Picasa the option (write name tags to pictures) is unchecked. I hit "read from file" and there are no names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murat Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Steps to migrate your Picasa faces (people) to Daminion People: 1. Launch Picasa and go to the Tools > Experimental > Write faces to XMP 2. Locate and select appropriate images in Daminion 3. Right click and navigate to the Actions > Write Tags to File 4. Right click and navigate to the Actions > Read Tags from File Now all your Picasa faces should appear as Daminion Peoples. The step #3 prevents you from lossing the unsaved tags after invoking the "Read Tags from File" command Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mammut Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Nice! Thanks very much for this extra feature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mammut Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Hm, it's not working here either. There is no People at all in Daminion after the Read tags from file function. But the correct data is there in the Metadata Viewer (at Region Name) if I use Show All Metadata... function (and the exiftool tag copying command is working without a problem, too). I tried with more images, no luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murat Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Could you please send me an image with faces that is not read by Daminion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mammut Posted January 15, 2014 Report Share Posted January 15, 2014 Could you please send me an image with faces that is not read by Daminion. I sent you one in e-mail. And another one with more people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murat Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 It works in the DEBUG version, sorry. We forgot to include it to the Release build. Mammut, you sent a very good sample image: it contains multiple people names including hierarchy. For other Daminion users: if you'll separate people names with "|" symbol their hierarchy will be visible by Daminion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rene Posted January 16, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Hey Murat, since I have such an amount of images, it would be nice, to have daminion checking in the background for new people names. that would save me a lot of time, since I don't need to take 5000 pictures mark them and click on read from file. Remember I have 120k of images still trying to get it to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murat Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 Just select your root folder in your Folders and press F6 (Rescan Folders). This will check all your images for changes and import new ones or reflect for outside metadata changes. A new version with working "Import from Regions:Faces" feature will be available today on the forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mammut Posted January 16, 2014 Report Share Posted January 16, 2014 if you'll separate people names with "|" symbol their hierarchy will be visible by Daminion. Yeah, as I said it earlier in the topic, it's a little ugly in Picasa, but my main goal was the correct hierarchy in Daminion. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
