I'm looking for advice on the best way to create CD's of photos for a
variety of operating systems. I periodically want to tag a bunch of photos in digikam, export & burn them to CD, and send them to family that have very limited connectivity to the internet. Some people have Macs, old OS 9 in a few cases, while others have Microsoft systems. A quick review of the Kipi plugins suggest CDArchive, Images Gallery (is that the same as HTML Gallery?) and the MPEG slideshow are all candidates. CDArchive looks to be an easy front end to k3b, but does not seem to do anything to make the collection more OS neutral or help with navigation. Images Gallery looks like it will create a hierarchy that can be read on any OS, but it will be completely static. The MPEG slide show has potential I'm not sure how portable its mpeg files are. If anyone has experience creating CD's for a diverse set of non-Unix users I'd love to hear your advice. Scott P.S. Can Images Gallery, the HTML export I believe, work off tags instead of directories? _______________________________________________ Digikam-users mailing list [hidden email] https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/digikam-users |
I've dug in some more and CDArchive looks like it does more
than I realized. I will try to use that. However, any advice or recommendations that people want to share would still be welcome.
