Dependencies ​

These tools are not strictly required, but if they are installed in your system, Photofield will use them to improve performance, metadata extraction, thumbnail generation, and video previews.

  • ExifTool: Extracts metadata from many more formats than the embedded goexif.
  • FFmpeg: Generates video thumbnails and previews and adds support for more image formats (even basic RAW).
  • djpeg (libjpeg-turbo): Accelerates JPEG decoding of big images in cases where there are no other appropriate thumbnails available.
