I have nearly every service imaginable running and have now started a new project.
I am creating a searchable stock photo archive for my lan. It has been a very interesting project but think i may have crossed the line into overkill lol.
I had hundreds of stock photo cds from the 90s I have turned them all into ISO’s.
I then spent ages dealing with some strange cdrom layouts but got all the images off.
I then converted them all to JPG.
I have now setup a batch script that dedupes then takes the images in 2k batches, runs them through a ai vision model to add keywords and descriptions; as they have none.
They are then copied to a folder where I have photoprism running as the front end and I only have 4k done so far but they look amazing and the search and descriptions are really accurate and useful.
400k more images to go but at least it should all be automated now.


This is awesome!
Personally I would have used TIFF and either Immich or ResourceSpace (a DAM - meant for this kind of thing, but also maybe more institutional than you want.)
Damn, unlimited storage? In this economy?
