v1.119.0

Caution

The env variable for the host binding was erroneously named HOST instead of IMMICH_HOST (which is how it was listed in the docs). This has been corrected in this release.
If you were using the HOST env var in your setup before, please update it to IMMICH_HOST.

If you are using the built-in Prometheus endpoint for monitoring, please read on. If not, you can ignore this section.

The following env variables have been removed:

  • IMMICH_METRICS
  • IMMICH_API_METRICS
  • IMMICH_HOST_METRICS
  • IMMICH_IO_METRICS
  • IMMICH_JOB_METRICS

Use IMMICH_TELEMETRY_INCLUDE / IMMICH_TELEMETRY_EXCLUDE instead.

Examples:

-- IMMICH_METRICS=true
++ IMMICH_TELEMETRY_INCLUDE=all
-- IMMICH_METRICS=true
-- IMMICH_HOST_METRICS=false
++ IMMICH_TELEMETRY_INCLUDE=all
++ IMMICH_TELEMETRY_EXCLUDE=host
-- IMMICH_API_METRICS=true
-- IMMICH_HOST_METRICS=true
++ IMMICH_TELEMETRY_INCLUDE=api,host

Welcome to release v1.119.0 of Immich. This release focuses on fixing issues surrounding video encoding and thumbnail generation for a variety of old and new formats, along with minor improvements across the app. Some of the highlights below:

  • Create new OAuth users without passwords
  • Debounce email notifications for album changes
  • Improve mobile app layout on tablets
  • VAAPI hardware decoding
  • Notable fix: Face Detection using excessive RAM with OpenVINO
  • Notable fix: transcodes not playing in the mobile app in certain situations

VAAPI hardware decoding

Prior to this release, Immich only used VAAPI for video encoding; it still used the CPU for decoding and tone-mapping. This release adds end-to-end acceleration for VAAPI, making transcoding much faster with lower CPU utilization. With this addition, every supported acceleration API now has end-to-end acceleration in Immich.

If you use VAAPI hardware acceleration, you can enable hardware decoding in the transcoding settings to take advantage of this change.

Transcoding fix for mobile

When the source video is Dolby Vision, transcodes sometimes either didn't play in the mobile app, or only the audio was played. In particular, this meant that many videos captured on iOS could not be viewed on Android.

This issue has been fixed. However, existing transcodes of Dolby Vision videos created using Immich 1.114.0 - 1.118.2 will still have the issue and will need to be re-transcoded for correct playback in these cases.

To re-transcode affected videos, you can either select them in the web app and choose the Refresh encoded videos option or go to the Job Status page and click All next to Transcode Videos.

Note: you only need to do this if you encounter playback issues for these videos.
