Albums should use relative symlinks to allow moving the output tree as a whole about googlephotostakeouthelper

Synology Photos will never understand anything as an album that has not been defined as an album within Synology Photos - sadly. I've not investigated - yet - where the albums are defined, my best guess is that they are in some Postgresql DB on the NAS, so it's not going to be trivial to create them.
However, if you select the Folder view in Synology Photos, you'll browse all your albums nicely as folders as created by GPTH. I'm not sure of any way to copy symlinks from one system (Windows) to the other (Linux), maybe a tarball can do it if they are relative. However if you run GPTH on the Synology itself, it will certainly be able to create the symlinks there.

Oh, this is a very good idea, I'll definetley try that 👀

Hello,

As I understand, if I run the script on Windows, then all folders (albums) that contain symlinks will not be identified by Synology photo as albums?

Should be fixed in new release - try it out 👍
