G Photos import
Immich
I am running Immich on a Windows 10 Desktop version v1.72.2. I have imported all the current photos on my Windows PC using the CLI uploader. All is working well.
All these photos and others are on Google Photos in “high quality” not original quality. There has been facial recognition and location detection on all the photos. I want the extra photos/albums etc in Immich. I have downloaded the photos in a Takeout. I have some questions.
1. Do I have to do anything to the Takeout files before uploading?
2. Will the Google facial recognition be used and will it assist the Immich facial recognition?
3. Will the duplicates of the existing photos not be used or removed?
4. If duplicates are recognised, what happens to the Google “High quality” copies of existing photos? Will they be removed or will they be classed as new photos?
Thanks
