v1.80.0

[alextran1502]

V1.80.0

We urge all Immich users to update this release as soon as possible, as it fixes a severe security vulnerability caused by a third-party dependency. See below for more details.

Warning

Breaking Changes (Action Required)

• The reverse geocoding settings have been moved to the admin settings pages. If you have set the level of accuracy in .env file, you will need to make the corresponding changes in the settings menu on the administration page on the web.
• Migrate thumbnails to a new folder structure by running the new migration job Admin > Settings > Migration. See chore(server): Store generated files (thumbnails, encoded video) in subdirectories #4112 for more details)

Highlights

Welcome to release v1.80.0 of Immich. I just returned from a long vacation to visit my family in Vietnam. The team has been working very productively while I was not actively involved in the development. This makes me happy and proves the project is in good hands.

I am excited to share this release with you, emphasizing bug fixing of the recent new library feature and many further QoL improvements. Below are some of the highlights

• Added mechanism to store generated files for thumbnails and encoded-videos in subfolders.
• Added an ability to suggest people’s names during name assignment for faces.
• Added an option to show the sidebar menu for the people page in the user setting on the web.
• Added week number as an option for path templating.
• Bugfixes related to External Libraries, metadata processing, and Live Photos

Storing generated files for thumbnails and encoded-videos in subfolders

This feature helps improve the performance by storing generated files in subdirectories. This yields smaller directory sizes (in terms of files per directory), decreasing the size of the inode entry.

New asset and face thumbnails will be stored at i.e. 89/ab/, if their id starts with 89abxxxx-xxxx...

We added a Migration job on the Jobs page to migrate the existing directory to this new structure.

The job will perform the following actions:

• Migration job to migrate all files to new folder structure (and possibly more migration stuff in the future)
• Clean up directories if assets/people get deleted

Suggesting people’s names during name assignments for faces

2023-09-17.22-14-10.mp4

Option to show the sidebar menu for the people page in the user setting on the web.

Add a new account preferenceAccount Settings > Sidebar Settings, which allows a user to enable a sidebar link to "People"

Light	Dark

Option to use week number as an option for path templating

You can now use week numbers ('W') and padded week numbers ('WW') patterns for storage templating.

---

And as always, bugs are fixed, and many other improvements also come with this release.

Please consider supporting the project.

This discussion was created from the release v1.80.0.

[nep2ner]

Thanks for getting libwebp updated so quickly

[lordraiden]

I don't understand do we need to have the same setting in both places or just remove the env variable and use the admin setting in the webui?

Thanks

# Reverse Geocoding
#
# Reverse geocoding is done locally which has a small impact on memory usage
# This memory usage can be altered by changing the REVERSE_GEOCODING_PRECISION variable
# This ranges from 0-3 with 3 being the most precise
# 3 - Cities > 500 population: ~200MB RAM
# 2 - Cities > 1000 population: ~150MB RAM
# 1 - Cities > 5000 population: ~80MB RAM
# 0 - Cities > 15000 population: ~40MB RAM

These aren't used anymore, you only need to adjust the web UI now

[nlrivera]

I got a notification of the update and installed it and am having some issues now and looking for advice.
Ran the following
sudo docker compose down && sudo docker compose pull && sudo docker compose up -d
After my machine Learning Container keeps restarting
docker logs immich_machine_learning reveals the following error.

[jrasm91]

Usually up -d works fine, but a few people are having issues with the machine learning container. Idk if it is related to running up while the stack is already running or not. Compose pull, down, and up is probably the safest though.

[nlrivera]

Still having issues. Ran docker compose pull, docker compose down then docker compose up and it's the same error message on the logs.

[nlrivera]

Got it to start by doing docker compose up -d, deleting the container in /var/lib/docker/containers and then it started on its own.

[nlrivera]

I'd like to upgrade but will wait until the server is under less load

[djak250]

You could try with docker compose up --force-recreate I've similar issues with other containers where it should've done the recreate by default, but forcing it fixed it.

[wutr]

• Migrate thumbnails to a new folder structure by running the new migration job Admin > Settings > Migration. See

Should be Administration > Jobs > Migration

Worked great once I found it though!

Edit: unless this was previously correct and subsequently moved somewhere between 1.80.0 and 1.82.0

[Huber1]

A question concerning the geocoding precision. Is there still a way to set it?
I used to not have it set to highest precision, because I'm living in a larger city, but my location is nearer to the center of some small village nearby, so the location is wrong.
Also when searching, I don't know all small villages but just search for the bigger ones nearby
