Ask HN: Best to store, index and categorize audio recordings
If you're doing a pipelined bulk processing pass to add metadata tags after extracting them via Speech to text, or have delimited notes in a text file, or ... etc.
You might find ExifTool useful.
It's pure commandline (with a few third party GUI's IIRC) multiplatform and purpose built to display, edit, add media tags to all sorts of AV files.

Cleaning up my 200GB iCloud with some JavaScript
> Any method that I've found to clean them up (exporting the originals, deleting them from the library, and then re-importing the JPEGs only seems easiest) will lose all of the years of metadata that I've built up in the library.
The open source tool osxphotos (https://github.com/RhetTbull/osxphotos) can help with this. You can export the JPEG images while preserving metadata using the thrid-party exiftool utility:
`osxphotos export /path/to/export --has-raw --skip-raw --exiftool`
This exports all images that have a raw pair but skips the raw component then uses exiftool (https://exiftool.org/) to write the metadata (keywords, etc.) to the exported JPEG files. You can then re-import these into photos either by dragging them or by running `osxphotos import /path/to/export/*`
Both the export and import commands have many other options for controlling export directory, etc. `osxphotos help export` or `osxphotos docs` to open docs in browser. (Disclaimer: I'm the author of osxphotos)

Locationator: Access Apple's Reverse Geocoding service from the command line, Services menu
Locationator also comes with an optional CLI that can be used to perform reverse geocoding on images from the command line or perform the reverse geocoding and then write the location data to the file's XMP metadata using exiftool. It also comes with two services for doing the same from the Finder or other apps using the Services menu.

Modifying "Media Creation Date" metadata in .m4v files?
Edit: Nevermind, I got it. I used PyExifTool and installed exiftool from exiftool.org.

May not work as not all camera store the serial number in the EXIF, but if you've got exiftool installed you can try running:

JPEG XL: How It Started, How Itβs Going
I think TIFF has some unique features that makes it more prone to certain security issues[1] compared to other formats, such as storing absolute file offsets instead of relative offsets. So I am not sure TIFF is a good container format, but many camera raws are TIFF-based for some reason.[2]

fdupes: Identify or Delete Duplicate Files
I've used Czkawka (https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka) because it does Lanczos-based image duplicate detection, which makes it more practical for me.

AllDup suddenly taking forever to process/delete selections
Maybe it's a setting you made or the files, not sure. You can try another software czkawka to see if you get better results with it.

Is there a file duplicate finder that works with animated jpegxl-gif?
For static images i used https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka and it works well enough. I think. But when i used it on a folder with gifs and their jxl conversions, it shows nothing. SURELY this could not be user error, rrrright?

PhotoPrism: Browse Your Life in Pictures
I used to use DupeGuru which has some photo-specific dupe detection where you can fuzzy match image dupes based on content: https://dupeguru.voltaicideas.net/
But I switched over to czkawka, which has a better interface for comparing files, and seems to be a bit faster: https://github.com/qarmin/czkawka
Unfortunately, neither of these are integrated into Photoprism, so you still have to do some file management outside the database before importing.
I also haven't used Photoprism extensively yet (I think it's running on one of my boxes, but I haven't gotten around to setting it up), but I did find that it wasn't really built for file-based libraries. It's a little more heavyweight, but my research shows that Nextcloud Memories might be a better choice for me (it's not the first-party Nextcloud photos app, but another one put together by the community): https://apps.nextcloud.com/apps/memories

Please don't post like 20 similar images to the art sites?
Czkawka can do this.
