Immich Web Gui

[gerwin221]

Hi,
first of all thank you for this fork. It's really great.

I use a nginx reverse proxy for immich in my homelab. I changed the port for immich host to 2284 and the optimizer started to do his job when syncing new pics or videos from my mobile when I am in my wlan at home or even when I am at work facing only internet.

But when I use the Web GUI of Immich with the Optimizer Port and try to upload a mp4 I get an error. Is this supposed to work from the browser too? Actually I wanted to download my old videos and reup them via the optimizer.

Thanks very much

yes, it's supposed to work, what error? open a proper issue

Problem was the nginx reverse proxy. when ffmpeg needs his time to convert the proxy kills the connection. you have to alter the timouts in the nginx proxy like for example:

proxy_connect_timeout 60s;
proxy_send_timeout 3600s;
proxy_read_timeout 3600s;
send_timeout 3600s;

maybe this should be mentioned in the readme.
