No images when exporting to .xml

Post by Nolle »

Hi,

I have a new problem now. I had to change my preferences so that the images are saved separately from the .amc file due to an error that occured...

Now, when I export my movies to xml like before, I don't have my images any more :mad: AMC doesn't copy the images.... (option "copy images with exported file" is enabled) :??:

What could be the problem and the fix for that ?

The problem is on AMC, not on your installation. It does not copy external pictures with an exported catalog, you need to copy the pictures manually. It's a bug or at least the export pictures option is misunderstandable. But if you use external pictures for your catalog, you could simply save your catalog to XML and use this format as default catalog format - you will not have to export it anymore then.

Indeed the xml export is not a real export, but rather just a save as, maybe I should fix that...

Ok,

What I did now is to save my catalog (.amc file) on the same place where I do my export in xml, so that all images are already in my export-map and that I just need to export in xml in order to update my list in html ...

But, should be easier if images where copied together with xml file...

Uhmmm.. simply use the XML file as your catalog, so NO export is needed. You can choose if you want to use .amc or .xml catalog, but you don't need the .amc catalog.
