Iām trying to migrate from OSX Photos to Nextcloud, but Iād like to preserve my āLiveā photos. Is there a way to migrate all photos into nextckoud without loosing the āliveā photo functionality?
I know thereās an iOS app which supports live photos, but that only seems to upload the āCamera Rollā instead of the entire photo library.
Iāve tried:
- Using OSX to sync photos to my iPhone so i can use the app to sync the live photos, but syncing OSX photos to ios does not sync the photos to the āCamera Rollā, but rather to the Library which is not uploaded by the nextcloud app.
- Exporting photos from the OSX Photos app. This separates the live photos into an image and a movie file. After importing the image and movie to nextcloud, it is not recognized as a āliveā photo.
- Using OSX to sync photos to the iPhone and then āshareā the ios photos to nextcloud - this also doesnāt preserve the āliveā functionality.
The only way i can seem to preserve the āliveā functionality is if i select photos in the ios photo library and āduplicateā the photos using the share menu. After duplicating, the photos will show up in the āCamera Rollā and will sync with the āliveā functionality to nextcloud, but then iām left with duplicate photos on my ios photo library and the metadata seems to be messed up on the duplicated photos (dates are wrong).
If anyone has any recommendations on how to import OSX Live photos to nextcloud, please share!
