v1.142.1

Hey guys, Alex here.

Sorry about the rocky release of version v1.142.0. Instead of giving you guys a better experience with the timeline, a mistake in the migration flow code that I wrote put the app into an erroneous state that makes it seem like the new timeline isn't working at all, and the only way to fix that was to log out and log back in manually. For that, I personally apologize for the inconvenience and the frustration that I caused over the weekend. This patch release addresses those issues and some other bugs that were reported over the weekend. If you have problems, please don't hesitate to reach out to me or the team on Discord or GitHub

In release v1.142.0, during the migration from the old timeline to the new one on the mobile app, the sync checkpoint isn't getting reset, leading to the data not being pulled from the server. During the development of the new timeline, while on the old timeline, the sync endpoint might have been triggered at some points. The missing sync information creates a perception of data loss and mismatched sync information for the mobile app. This release reset the sync checkpoints so that they can be pulled down correctly for everyone.

Tip

For the new timeline to pull the correct information, please consider updating your server to the latest version. We have seen reports that the timeline isn't working because it was connecting to an older version of the server

This patch release also addresses the reliability of background sync on Android. We suggest that you don't swipe away to dismiss the app, but keep it in the background; this will prevent the background worker from being terminated by the OS. Further optimization of the background worker's operation when the app is dismissed will be implemented in the next few days, pending additional testing.

Highlights

Welcome to release v1.142.0 of Immich. Starting with this version, the beta timeline is now the default version for the app. When you first open the app after updating, it will check and run the on-device migration steps for those that are on the old timeline, after that you can close and relaunch the app to start with a better app experience. We want to express our sincere gratitude again for the users who have been using the new version to help us polish it, and for those who work closely with us to tackle weird bugs. As always, this version comes with many bug fixes for the server, web and the mobile app. Let’s dive into some of the highlights below.

Resume all paused jobs
Geolocation utility improvements
Read-only mode toggle on the mobile app has changed to a long-press behavior instead of a double-tap
Notable fix: Raspberry Pi 4 crashes when generating thumbnails
- If you were affected by this bug and set the environmental variable VIPS_NOVECTOR=1, you should remove this variable when upgrading to this Immich release or above

Resume all paused jobs

The job administration page now comes with a resume all button. This is especially helpful for users who are importing their libraries to Immich via immich-go, which pauses all jobs during upload, including background jobs not visible in the UI. If the process fails mid-way, the jobs stay paused until the admin either recreates the Redis container or manually resumes them. If you’ve been having problems with the trash not clearing or memories not generating, make sure to check this button.

Geolocation utility improvements

The geolocation utility has been converted to a timeline view, so you can easily scroll through your entire library while investigating

You can now browse the timeline, and at the same time, fill in the missing coordinates for your assets. Thanks @Johannbr for your continued work on this.
