On Feb 1st, all current 2.x versions of DeepMeta will loose the ability to fetch data from the iStock servers and uploads will no longer be possible.

The new DeepMeta v3.0 will be available for download, starting Feb 1st, this version will communicate with new servers hosted by Getty, using a completely new API (interface used by computers to talk to servers).

After installing DeepMeta 3, you can still run the old DeepMeta v2.x version to check the (old) statistics already fetched in DeepMeta. You can also choose to uninstall the old version if you prefer.

DeepMeta 3 will allow you to manage and upload the following types: Images, Illustrations (raster & vector), Video and Editorial Images.
IMPORTANT: Your current data in DeepMeta will not be transferred to DeepMeta 3, which will start up empty! Until Feb 1st, you are advised to limit the number of non-uploaded files in DeepMeta to a minimum!

In the weeks following the launch of Feb 1st, I will be adding an import tool to DeepMeta 3, allowing to import selected data from the old version, including non-uploaded files. Note however, that the new keyword vocabulary will be different, so your term-selections for keywords will not be imported.

Wonder if the new version will still require all the annoying keyword subcategory tick boxes. I really hope not.  Sunny - sun, sunlit effect or sonny the entertainer. Incredible time consuming waste of time.

XP not supported just for those handing onto old computers.

At least DM is staying up to date with things. Franky is a good man.

Deep meta do an amazing job considering what they have to link with!

Deep Meta V3 what country is image from. Now what new box will they think of?

The CV is an amazing saver of time. In Alamy I have to type in all the options, including stemming, manually.  When a CV is working properly it's a far preferable option, ticking boxes being far faster than typing words out in  full.

The trouble with CVs is unless a lot of resource is thrown at them they rapidly become out of date and they have to be managed well....not IS strong suit

Finally managed to log in and download deepmeta 3.0. I'm watching the tutorial and to be quite honest, I don't like the new version at all. The old one was much more intuitive and easy to use but I guess he had to cripple the program to accommodate ESP. I wonder how much money they wasted on all this? Guess that explains the latest round of paycuts for everyone...

You're probably mostly referring to the way Batches are handled?
I must admit I've been struggling with this. The ESP site is 100% focused around batches: it's your starting and endpoint. This makes sense for ESP, being an upload portal.

With DeepMeta, I don't want to lose the "portfolio management" part. I know there's very little (if any) management left in V3 at this point, but to me, V3 a new starting point, and I'm determined to go beyond what DM 2 could deliver.

This is why I still have flat lists of Files and Releases in there. Contributors will want to see stats and work at the level of their portfolio as such, not necessarily in the context of batches.

I realize I have a long way to go, but I'm not a quitter

All feedback, positive and negative is totally welcome. Don't hold back

Thanks!
Keyword counting and auto duplicate removal is already in test. Should make it to release soon.

As for the CV. All I can say is that the API switched from using the iStock CV to the Getty CV. We're all learning about the differences now. In any case, I have no choice: only Getty keyword terms are accepted now.

A lot of users do seem to have a non-english language set as their keyword language at the ESP site:
https://esp.gettyimages.com/app/profile

I'm assuming this automatically got defaulted when their ESP account was setup.
Non English as keyword language is currently very funky and almost unusable (I've been informed a fix is being worked on).
Of course this is worsening the perception of the Getty CV for some users...

Feel free to post more bugs, rants and suggestions. I'm monitoring all channels (with FB being the worst to keep track of)
Thanks

why deepmeta don't use the IPTC data from JPG? I have my vectors with jpg preview and IPTC ready. Now I have to waste a lot of time to add a new keywords?

This should work, actually. You made me doubt, so I just tested it to make sure. Added an EPS and JPG thumbnail, and the IPTC data (title, description and keywords) was correctly extracted from the thumbnail JPG.

If you have an example JPG where this doesn't appear to work for you, please send it to me and I'll do some testing.
I agree IPTC imports make a night-and-day difference.

Effluent (as in sewage) disambiguates to Wealth and Luxury (confused with Affluent)

Or is that the way it comes from Getty? Probably right for Getty Effluent=affluent

Anyhoo if this is the new standard from Getty it's just really time consuming and makes it even less worth while than the 15% royalty.

Thanks Franky for all your hard work providing for free Deepmeta which Getty should be paying you for all your work!!!

I've uploaded v3 and all my files from the old version are gone. Somewhere it says I can continue to run V2 separately but the v3 installation seems to have written over v2, so I can't run the old version.

How can I access all of that previous information?

 

Thanks, I sent you the jpg for test but the mail server said: "the user's maildir has overdrawn his diskspace quota, please try again later."

thanks
