Linked Media

When using the Upload GedcomGEDCOM, an acronym for GEnealogical Data COMmunication, is a specification for exchanging genealogical data between different genealogy software. It is a file format that most genealogical programs and online trees recognise. File option, any MediaWhen you add a picture, video, sound recording, document file etc into a Family Historian project, a Media record is created to represent that media item within the project; the Media record includes a link to the actual Media file. File links to PC based files will be ignored, but if the Media File links are URL for online images they should be included in the ZoomPast tree.

When using the My Trees option to Download it will produce a ZIP file containing a GEDCOM file and any image files that you manually added to your tree.

The GEDCOM file will contain Local Media Objects with File link URL for any uploaded images.

For each such image in the ZIP file, those URL will start with %%https://www.zoompast.com/image/%%.

If you intend to import to ƒh or other genealogy products, then that prefix should be removed from the GEDCOM with a global edit using a plain text editor to leave just the filename.
