Not quite sure what you mean by find and consolidate. You mean assign/add picture collection from many place to into program? If that the case then these 2 photos might get you idea. You can add collection from any place.

Subject: [digiKam-users] Help - Consolidation


Sorry if this has been requested before – I just couldn’t find any references. I need to consolidation 20+ years of photos from myself, family and friends.

My configuration:

  1.  I have Windows 10Pro with:
     *   i7 3200 Processor; 32Gb Ram; 500GB SSD boot drive; NVida 2060 GPU;.
     *   (5) hard drives; 100Gb to 2Tb.
  2.  Each hard drive is from a different CPU, and each has different directories with various types of photos and videos.
  3.  I’ve established a 680GB disk to accept all of the images for my use.
  4.  I’ve installed digiKam 7.3.0 for Windows.

My problem is how to get these into a common library/location for easier management! (or, should I even do that?)

Questions:

1:            Can I use digiKam to find and consolidate those photos and videos?

                If yes, how?

2.            If no, any suggestions on how to get this done?



Thank You!
