Eksportér fotos fra digiKam via DLNA

Fra Dmitri Popovs blog, 4. marts 2013

Har du brug for hurtigt at overføre fotos i digiKam til en enhed på samme netværk? Forudsat at enhederne understøtter DLNA kan du gøre dete ved brug af Kipi-pluginet DLNAExport. Vælg Eksportér -> Eksportér via DLNA for at åbne guiden DLNA eksport. Fra drop-ned-listen Vælg implementation vælger du enten HUPnP API eller miniDLNA. Begge muligheder har fordele og ulemper. miniDLNA understøtter miniaturer og virker med alle DLNA-kompatible enheder; men den kan ikee håndtere hierarkiske mapper og virtuelle album. Desuden anvender miniDLNA den ældre UPnP 1.0.0 protokol. HUPnP bruger derimod den seneste UPnP protokol og understøtter hierarkiske mapper og virtuelle album. Blandt ulemperne er manglende understøttelse af enheder fra Sony samt miniaturer.

If you choose the miniDLNA option, you have to install the miniDLNA package on your system. To do this on Debian and Ubuntu-based Linux distributions, run the apt-get install minidlna command as root. Once miniDLNA has been installed, press the Find button in the DLNA Export window and specify the path to the miniDLNA binaries (usually it’s /usr/bin).

Press then the Next button, and select the collection you want to export. You have three options here: you can pick the desired albums in the My Albums section, or select tags under the My Tags tab to export photos containing specific tags. If you already have saved searches in digiKam, you can select them in the My Searches section to export photos matching specified search criteria. Note that tags and searches cannot be used with miniDLNA, as it doesn’t support virtual albums.

Press Next again and hit the Start button to start the DLNA server. You can then access the shared photos from any device on the network using a dedicated DLNA client, or DLNA-enabled software.
