Hi, I'm an avid photographer and often end up with 200 photos of people per weekend. Luckily, for a while now there's face tagging technology. It's not perfect, but it helps.
For a couple of years now, I use to tag pictures in Adobe Lightroom after importing them from the cloud, face tags are saved in jpgs as XMP meta data.
However, Huawei's gallery software, just as many others are now doing their own face recognition and offer to browse pictures by recognized face. So my question is if someone knows if it's possible to save the facial recognition data generated by the gallery software as tags in xmp or exif metadata within the files, prior to uploading them to the cloud. Other metadata, like geolocation, is included in the file as exif data.
If that should not be possible, maybe someone knows a software that offers facial tagging with included metadata outside of the gallery app itself.
Thanks!

i wonder
can any one explain me the systematization behind the picasa and the 3D gallery
the reason i am asking this is because i am confused by the way the gallery choose to order the photo it seems that it is by the order of the upload which is doesn't make sense.
another thing and more important is the way it is splitting the photos to groups
it should be by date and geolocation but what i get is:
for example,
first group (dec 8 2010) with 21 photos
second group (dec 8 2010) with 1 photo
* both groups with the same geolocation
sometimes it is split to 3 groups with the same date even photos with few minutes intervals
any ideas how to avoid this
its really bad when you have 1000 picture and instead having 10~15 groups you have 25~30
please Help
(i am using Nexus S, CM7)
UP PLease !!!
I can't say for sure, but I'm guessing it relies on the media scanner process, and service in the Android system that automatically scans your SD card for media files. And when the media scanner detects new photos, the gallery probably just throws them into their own group without considering how they relate to the other groups present. At least that's how it seems to happen.
I'm guessing the ordering of albums is so strange because it doesn't order albums. They appear in the way that they're internally cached, which will depend on a few different factors all mostly out of your control.
Honestly, I despise the default gallery with a burning passion. Sure, it's got a cheesy 3D effect that makes it all shiny and 2.0, but it's slow as hell, has several small but irritating problems (like everything you're talking about) and lacks any real features at all.
I use QuickPic myself. It's simpler: it presents your albums in a 2D grid, but it gives you a bit more control via the settings. Its big plus is, it's very fast. It picks up new images instantly, it renders the albums and individual pictures very quickly even when they're very large, and it can do so without lagging at all. The default gallery would lag like crazy whenever it tried to render newly-added content, and that's on my Evo 4G that I've done some work to optimize. I can only imagine how people deal with the default gallery on a slower phone.
Is there a version of Web Albums for ipad on Android? Or something equivalent.
The best thing about Web Album is it not only access your Picasa storage the way it is meant to be but also offers the option to cache your photos on your device (ipad).
That way, I solve the organization issue & maintains consistency across multiple devices.
Edit: Still looking for equivalent to Picasa for home videos though.... Any tips?

This program doesn't show the picasa web albums
so its not really a substitute for the Built in Gallery
Do you have any solution for that
Smart Travel Notes, an app with art and visual appealing, is a multimedia travel diary, photo, video and voice recorder, which helps you organize the contents of the trip through the catalog of places you visited in the days that make the trip.
Every place you see and save will automatically paired with the correct day and you can take as many photos as you want, record video, save audio notes and write a travel day diary. For every place, photo and video, GPS coordinates are saved, at the time of its registration.
The places visited during the day or the whole trip can be viewed on map and exported in KML format (with accompanying photos).
You can also record the path that you do through a continuous GPS tracking capabilities and export it to KML format for Google Earth. Also useful to record your daily jogging performance!
You can share photos on Facebook and Twitter as you like, at any time, with gps position, and so more...
Hi, I'm looking for an app so that I can take photos using a digital camera and geotag them directly on my Android phone.
Ideally, I would
Sync the time stamp on my camera and the phone
Ask the app to start to record my GPS coordinates periodically, like every 10 seconds
Take photos
Transfer the photos on to the phone
Geotag them with the app all at once (write GPS info to EXIF)
The apps I have tried so far can either do only 1 photo at a time, or ask me to tag photos with their desktop clients. This is not what I want.
There is a pretty good app called geotagr on iOS, but how about Android?
Thank you!
Does any gallery or file app allow tagging in this exif tag "LastKeywordXMP"?
Am looking to tag pictures and files offline on a chromebook instead of a windows laptop. I use this tag a lot for file management.
Hi all, this is my first post here so please be gentle
I recently upgraded to a Galaxy A52 and have been compiling all of my photo collections onto said device. Motion photos (originally taken on an S9, then stored on an A3 2017) worked perfectly fine, and now I'm trying to figure out if I can get Live Photos transferred from my iPhone SE 1st gen and converted into Samsung's Motion Photo format.
I've searched and tried experimenting for hours, but I haven't found any evidence of someone successfully making a native Motion Photo. If anyone has heard of such a tool, I would love to know.
I did find tools to extract them (https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/samsung-motion-photo-extractor.3339997/), as well as some details about the file specs (https://github.com/photoprism/photoprism/issues/439).
A basic technical summary for Samsung's Motion Photos is that there is an mp4 file embedded into the jpeg metadata as binary data.
I tried my hand at making such a tool for converting Live Photos to Motion Photos on my own, using ffmpeg and exiftool. This is the flow I attempted:
1. Use Google Photos to backup Live Photos from my iPhone
2. Download them on my computer, which will give me .jpg and corresponding .mov files
3. use ffmpeg to convert and remux .mov file into correct container and codec
4. use exiftool to merge video file into jpeg file
5. copy to new Samsung phone
Unfortunately, I got stuck on the 4th step in writing the exif tags. the tags that Samsung uses are non-standard, and I couldn't find any clear resources on how I could set up an exiftool config file to do so.
I also tried downloading directly from Google Photos on my destination device, but the downloaded files are not visible outside of the Google Photos app so I cannot examine them or use them with any app other than Google Photos. I tried on a rooted emulator, and I could only find the photo portion of the file (corresponding video was not embedded and nowhere to be found). Even if this did work, it would not be a practical method as from the Google Photos app photos must be downloaded individually (no bulk option)
I've mostly given up on this and am not particularly seeking advice, rather I thought I'd share my findings and attempts as there doesn't seem to be much information for converting Live Photos to Motion Photos. Of course, if someone does know how to properly set up exiftool to write the correct tags into the image file, I will be happy to share the batch script I make to convert my collection.
--edit--
just for reference, I created this https://exiftool.org/forum/index.php?topic=12388.0 corresponding post in the exiftool forums, so if someone finds this in the future trying to attempt the same or similar thing, maybe there will be helpful replies there.

Does not seem to work this way.
I found a solution to "transfer" live photos from sn Apple to motion photo on a Samsung app:
