The Next Generation Export
Posted: 21 Oct 2022 08:21
Hello,
I use the TNG website to display my FH database, the last time I did an export from FH6 to TNG was about 2 years ago.
As I have family event coming up and many changes to my FH data (including upgrading to FH Ver 7), I thought I go through the process of utililising Mike T's plugin and run an export TNG process. After doing the pre tidying processes and the Bap to Chr change, I ran the plugin and it produced the new gedcom file and I stored it in a temporary directory. On viewing the temp directory I see the new gedcom file and also lots of jpegs. I am sure that when I ran it two years ago, it didn't produce the jpegs.
Can some nice person explain this to me because I am having awful difficulty with media files in the TNG program now, in that when I run the thumbnails program in TNG it is not recognising the majority of my media files? It is probably something that I am doing wrong because the last time on importing into TNG I did experience a few issues on marrying up the media files.
I know there are a number of FH users who use TNG, how do you handle the importing of media files to TNG from FH7 please?
Many thanks,
PP
