Create your own Peakto catalog and some other questions
I currently use the subscription version of lightroom. I would like to renounce it completely and cancel the subscription. Can I use Peakto to read the existing catalog and add photos without using Lightroom? Currently, the images (36,000) are on a server,
Referenced masters on network drive not found
Hi, in Aperture I used referenced masters and these mostly reside on a network drive (Drobo 5N2). The drive is online and Aperture is showing, that the masters are online as well. However, when I try to convert my Aperture library with Avalanche, Avalanche
[PEAKTO] Add choice to edit file in other editors
Hi all !! Hi there, I have just adopted Peakto which will surely replace FastRawViewer advantageously in my photographic workflow. My collection is based on a NAS share in which my photos are classified by theme in folders. In this case, Peakto only offers
Merci !
Bonjour, Un point de mon utilisation. J'utilise plusieurs logiciels (Photos pour celle de l'iPhone, Photo Mechanic Plus pour le tri, Lightroom Classic pour le cataloguage, Capture One pour le développement avec les sessions, Dxo parfois et Photoshop)
Any association between Previews and their Masters?
I'm just getting started (already watched quite a few of the videos, including the preview-related ones), and converted one of my smaller (<5000 photos) Aperture libraries today to Lightroom to start to understand how Avalanche transforms things. I'm
Aperture Vault
is there anyway to use Avalanche to extract my images from an Aperture Vault? I think I messed up my Aperture library when I previously tried to migrate from Aperture to Lightroom. Now that I no longer have access to Aperture I would prefer to start from
After Aperture import, some images not showing in Capture one
Greetings! First of all, Love this SW, so great to be able to import my Aperture images to Capture one! I've been using it since beta, and have been having a few issues. The most notable is referenced images not showing in Capture one The issue I'm having,
Bug in GPS Video IPTC
Avalanche does not import GPS coordinates for videos (neither does C1 import module) to be seen inside the metadata Exif GPS panel. However, it attributes IPTC reverse geolocalized information at random, taken from other images, and thus falsely.
Can't display project images
In current C1 version, at least since v21, when you are in browser mode and select a project inside a user collection, you can see the images of the albums inside the project. When the library has been imported by Avalanche, it does not seem to work.
Introducing updated versions of Avalanche with support for Google Photos
We updated all flavours of Avalanche today, with new functionalities, feature enhancements and bug fixes. Among those features, we introduced support for Google Photos takeouts. You can now use Avalanche to migrate your Google Photos export to a new home
Migrating from Avalanche for lightroom to Avalanche Unlimited, is it possible?
Hello, I purchase a license for Avalanche for Lightroom today when I should have purchased Avalanche Unlimited instead; user error.... is there a way to migrate from one to the other and will owners of Avalanche for lightroom or any of the other vesions
Is Aperture now completely broken on Catalina ?
At CYME, we have been using Aperture for the past two years very extensively in our tests. Last week, Aperture stopped being usable on Catalina (macOS 10.15.7), after it started to render all previews and thumbnails of an open catalog as black images.

Lightroom Masters on external drive cannot be found
My Lightroom catalogue is on my hard drive, my masters are on an external hard drive. Avalanche finds and analyzes the catalogue. But when I want to convert it, Avalanche says the drive with the masters is not online. Weird, because the drive as such
No Lightroom Catalog created
Hi there, when I convert an Aperture library to Lightroom with Avalanche 1.3.9c (running on Mac Mini M1 / Big Sur 11.4) all the files are copied to new location, but no Lightroom Catalog seems to be created - there's no option on the final screen (screenshot
Folder organization
I'm confused by the user collection structure obtained after the migration I'm starting from a referenced library and I don't want to export the masters. I would have expected to retrieve a Group/Project/All images structure, as in C1 built-in importer,
Referenced files not found, different structure.
I've been running into a problem migrating a large catalog. Most of it works great (managed photos), but referenced photos are not found. The referenced files have been moved to an external hard disk alongside the Aperture catalog as the original mac
Managed Masters not displaying in Aperture
My current Aperture library should have 100% of the photos managed as referenced files. I am using a Smart Album in Aperture (File status = Managed) to display all Managed photos. No photos are showing in this Smart Alum which confirms that all photos
Avalanche for Luminar / Avalanche Unlimited on macos 10.13 High Sierra
Hi there, at the moment I am on macos 10.13 High Sierra, not really wanting to update to 10.14 Mojave and DEFINITELY not wanting to update to 10.15 Catalina. (Because then my Lightroom 6 might stop working correctly). Will you support Avalanche for Luminar / Avalanche Unlimited on macos 10.13 High Sierra? If not will you support macos 10.14 because this I might go (and still use my old Lightroom 6). After getting out of Lightroom (with your Tool "Avalanche" i hope) and being sure about it I will
What are the Pros/Cons of the two exported library structures?
There is the option to Reporduce the Source Hierarchy or do separate Collections and Projects. Is there an advantage disadvantage to either/or?
Why would I want to choose the different Preview Import options?
There are options to Never import previews, When conversion is approximate or lossy, when conversion is lossy, Always when available. I could not find an answer to why I would want to use one of these over another for my import from Aperture to Lig
Include an option to Ignore Pictures for import if one only wanted to import Video files to a catalog

What are the advantages/disadvantages of the different exported folder structures.
What are the reasons I would want to use a Flat Hierarchy? Is there an advantage to that format? Are there in inherent advantages/disadvantages to any of the other types of folder structure? I am leaning toward the Year/Month/date but with ~3TB of data
Avalanche losing metadata
I've got an Aperture library I busted up into smaller libraries—one for each year—and when I convert one of those smaller libraries to Lightroom with Avalanche 1.3.4, out of 11,000 images, about 7,500 of them lose all their EXIF and IPTC data. I opened
Avalanche for Lightroom v1.3 and Unlimited/Luminar v1.2 are out !
We've been very busy over the last few weeks to try to answer as many questions and fix as many issues that you encountered. We also listened to feedback to improve some of the features around previews. We hope these releases solve most of the issues encountered. Please note that one of the points often raised is the difference in count between the theoretical number of images initially reported by Avalanche and the final count of mlgrated images. We have done several actions to improve this: fixed
Dates are wrong
I'm running Avalanche version 1.2.1 (Build 954). I hovered the mouse over the date range graph at the top of the window, and the earliest bar is showing a range of Dec 29, 2004 - Jan 2 2004: So first off, those dates are in the wrong order. And secondly, I sorted all the photos by date, and there are no photos from Dec 29, 2004, nor the 28th or 30th. Nor from those dates in 2003. The tooltip at the other end of the graph says there are 37 photos from Jan 23, 2005 - Jan 27, 2005. I checked, and there
Bottom half of conversion window slides left and right
The bottom half of the conversion window, the portion where you select your conversion parameters, slides left and right when you scroll with a Magic Mouse or a track pad. Why? It looks like two different but similar sets of conversion parameters, which doesn't make a lot of sense. After you've scrolled sideways, the Next and Previous buttons no longer work correctly until you close and reopen the application.
Disk volume icons scroll left and right off the window
Using one-finger swiping on a Magic Mouse you can scroll the disk volume icons completely off the sides of the window.
Need to be able to pull previews for BOTH approximate and lossy conversions
The drop down will only let you choose one or the other, not both. Also, the selector here says "approximative," but the collection that gets created is called "approximate." The latter term is far more common in American English.
Avalanche takes forever to launch if no network
Unfortunately a thunderstorm knocked out our internet service last night. Now launching Avalanche takes about 28 bounces before the window finally appears, and another 15 or so before the Buy button goes away. I’m guessing it’s trying to “phone home” on the main thread.
Error when choosing a metadata preset in a converted library
Not sure if these are related, but it seems probable. I exported a small portion of my Aperture library into its own library, and then used Avalanche to convert that to Lightroom. When looking at the Metadata block in the Library module, the JPEGs all have a line that says "Sidecar Files" that's set to "xmp": If I use Lightroom to import a random JPEG, its Metadata block doesn't show this line: If I then try to select a metadata preset, I get the Lightroom error "An internal error has occurred.

Levels adjustments
A lot of my test photos are considerably darker than they are in Aperture. Are Aperture's "Levels" adjustments supported?
Show estimated time as hours, minutes, seconds, not just minutes, seconds.
I shouldn't have to launch the calculator to figure out that 493 minutes is eight hours.
Minimize and Zoom items in the Window menu are always disabled.
The buttons in the top left of the window title bar work, why don't the menu options? And why is there a "Bring All to Front" option when there's only one window?
Don't generate a Videos collection if I chose to ignore videos.
I turned on the Ignore Videos check box, but the resulting Lightroom catalog still has an Avalance-generated Videos collection.
If you minimize the window to the dock and then restore it, it goes completely blank.
After you select an Aperture library, the window goes blank if you minimize and restore it. There's no way to get it to redraw: resizing it, entering/exiting full screen, hiding and then showing all leave it completely blank. You have to quit the app and relaunch it.
Show the item counts in the same order on the before and after screens.
The before screen is listed as Masters, Versions, Videos, Faces, Albums, but the after screen is listed as Versions, Masters, Albums, Faces, Videos. If you're not paying attention, you'll think the numbers changed on you.
