Description

Instead of albums to include, can we also exclude albums

Use Case

I have tons of albums, with only about 5 that I don't want to include. Rather than listing out which albums to include. Can I just exclude the 5?

This is a bigger change than you would think. Short reason is we use the GUID for Albums and/or People to build a list of assets we then randomize. If we only had an album exclusion GUID we wouldn't have the other GUID's to get assets from.

Could you just create a dedicated ImmichFrame user, and only share the albums you want with them? Not ideal but that should accomplish what you want. Doing it this way you also wouldn't have to enter in the GUID's, you could just let it GetRandom from all assets.
