[1864] - missing Thumbnails

[rene]

Hello Daminion Community,

I just realized that my Daminion is missing a lot of Thumbnails, probably due to the fact, that I didn't copy all Thumbnail Cache Folders. 

 

 

Is there a way to let Daminion Show me all Files with missing Thumbnails? Or to Show all files with Thumbnails bigger or smaller than the Ratio I entered in the ADMIN Server Panel?

 

Thank you!

Hello Rene, there is no way to show all files without thumbnails but you can regenerate thumbs for all files. Please display all the files in the thumb window, then CTRL+A > CTRL+B. It will take time. Or you can do the same for every file without a thumb. 

Kind regards, 
Daria

Hello Daria, 

yes, I know that way.

 

I was hoping for an easier solution.

 

Or is it better to just create a new catalog and have all files scanned by the new ccatalogue?

Hi Rene,

If you create a new catalog, I recommend to use my tool DamCompare (available in GitHub) to verify that your new database is equal to the old one.

I guess, creating a new catalog, takes very much longer, than selecting all items and perform a Ctrl+B.

Besides that, creating a new catalog, you may loose certain information. So far I found these:

• Custom tags
• Comment tag
• Checkout history
• ... possibly the content of some random tags, which can be identified using Juha's tool.
