v1.96.0

Highlights

Welcome to release v1.96.0 of Immich. This release adds more enhancements for search, optimizes the mobile app and includes a handful of bug fixes. Some of the key highlights include:

• Search filter form improvement
• Search by location when editing the place for the asset.
• Optimization of asset rendering on the mobile app.
• Slideshow options (web)
• Notable fix (mobile app): Stop sending users to the login page for unrelated authentication errors.
• Notable fix: Smart Search when using OpenVINO.

Improved Search Form

After receiving users' feedback, we make the search filter a little more compact with minor UI/UX changes to make the process of selecting/deselecting the filter's content more intuitive.

Search location when editing place for the asset.

We have implemented the lookup-on-type mechanism to quicky search for a location on the map when adding or edding location of the asset. This process happens entirely on your server

[Web] Slideshow options

We added additional options for the slideshow feature on the web, so you can make it fit your needs when showing of your gallery

Optimized asset rendering on the mobile app

We add a blur thumbnail loading step to help the transition from black/white placeholder to the image a more pleasant experience and fix a bug that sometimes the HTTP client would timeout and show the broken icon on the thumbnail.

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

This discussion was created from the release v1.96.0.

[Isrofilov]

docker exec -u postgres immich_postgres psql -d immich -c "CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_trgm;"
docker exec -u postgres immich_postgres psql -d immich -c "CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS unaccent;"

[afermar]

After running this commands i get this:

NOTICE:  extension "pg_trgm" already exists, skipping
NOTICE:  extension "unaccent" already exists, skipping

And the server still does not start properly.

[Isrofilov]

What database image are you using?
Check the current one here

[dsm1212]

Ok, I'm probably just not finding this. My slideshow is always playing backwards in time. Can I reverse it? Actually I'd probably rather have the timeline reversed because I don't really like going backwards through the photos manually either.

steve

[alextran1502]

There is an option to randomize. Otherwise, it will go backward in time. Having an option to go forward in time is a good idea

[dsm1212]

I added a separate discussion/feature request. thx
#7489

[mmomjian]

@alextran1502 greatly appreciate making it possible to run Immich in a shared DB without SU perms. In this case, the manual intervention was not needed. On both extension manual pages, the following appears. I was able to upgrade directly to 1.96.0 without adding the extensions and they now appear in the Immich database as added.

This module is considered “trusted”, that is, it can be installed by non-superusers who have CREATE privilege on the current database.

It’s not possible to run Immich without CREATE perms so in this case the upgrade should work fine for all users.

[mertalev]

Oh wow, thanks for mentioning this! I didn't know you could install trusted extensions without SU permission.

[mmomjian]

Sure thing! Hopefully this makes this and future database changes a little more frictionless.

[stephen304]

Is there anything special needed or a new android app update that hasn't fully rolled out for the blurred loading? I just updated to 1.96.0 and the android app for me still goes straight from grey to fully loaded - it also goes back to grey if I scroll away and back even if it's just a split second - I would think scrolling over the same section would cache something, be it the blurred thumb or the full image staying loaded:

[eil047]

I see and appreciate a lot of effort in the search possibilities, but unless I'm missing something, still no search possible on the item filename? I would assume this as the most basic/simple search operation? And it was available in the past? Why is it still missing? Thanks for your feedback!
