The rest of the media applications in DSM7 have not really changed much since DSM 6.2, but this is by no means a bad thing. You can find out more on Synology Photos in the video below:
#SYNOLOGY G SUITE BACKUP SETUP FULL#
We have discussed Synology Photos at length when the application was included in the DSM 7 beta and the core system build remains the same in this new full DSM7 release. Though it and the Subject recognition were areas where the visibility of these albums needed to be activated on the menu (odd choice) and I am also pleased to confirm that not only did it do a good job, but photo data was carried over from the DSM 6.2 system before. The AI-powered photo recognition and people, faces and things are still available in DSM 7 and do not require an internet connection in order to operate. So, for example, you can search for photos that MUST contain photos of person X, Y and Z, but have to have been taken between data A-B, on camera C, in location D – not only will it spit the results out to you very quickly from your collections, but you can then create a brand new photo album in 2 clicks from these results. This information, along with photo tagging can be used in the new improved filter search system to a noticeably high degree, not only to find photos a great deal more precisely but also to immediately reach smart albums based on those search results.
That said, Synology Photos is still a big, BIG jump over Moments and the amount of information in the photo metadata that you can pull in the app is SIGNIFICANTLY better.
Likewise, a few of the AI-powered functions and menus are required to be manually turned on at the first time app launch, which seems an off choice. Equally, the slightly more restrictive target folders that are used Synology Photos is the same as Moments/Photo Station before it and in most cases, you will need your albums to reside in pre-designated areas of your NAS storage (you cannot tell the app to ‘index from X location’ easily).

Likewise, the design of Photo Station seemed to resonate better with professional photographers, compared with the more chewable/easy Moments UI – so the fact that Synology Photos has heavily embraced the latter design has ruffled a few feathers.

Synology Photos is a very impressive upgrade over Synology Moments (which always felt like had its wings clipped so it would not cross over Photo Station too much), but many Photo Station users how raised complaints about the simplified UI of Synology Photos. This is much more familiar to Photo Station users, with a control that allows professional photographers and business users to craft and control the images they share. The shared space however will show the individual photos/albums/collection that you are sharing. The former being your personal photo collection and all of the browsing, categorization and customization that you would expect. This is done by the Synology Photos app having a 2-Door/tab system for personal space and shared space. It would be fair to say that Synology Photos’ design is much more influenced by Synology Moments before it, but whereas Moments were a much more simplified album/strict-folder interface, Synology Photos has a little bit more customization available in terms of that albums and folders that are available to view. There is also multimedia extension add ons, media server extras and a few service extras, but in DSM 7 the only real BIG change is the move by the brand to consolidate the photo tools ‘Photo Station’ and ‘Moments’ into a single tool, Synolgoy Photos. Synology has a dedicated music management tool (Audio Station and iTunes server), dedicated video tool (Video Station), and photo management tool (Synology Photos).
