Export 145,000 records from TNG to MFT

[Jipi]

Good morning,

I'm sorry if this question has already been answered. I searched the forums and WIKI without finding the answer.

I have a database of more than 145,000 records with a few thousand media (obitums). The working file for our genealogist is Brother's Keeper. I exported to Gedcom, imported with MFT to correct some wrong date formats, exported the Gedcom and then processed with TNG. Everything works very well :-).

With TNG, we have all the media we don't have in Brother's Keeper. So I want to export this gedcom and the media to recover them with MacFamilyTree and restart.

Yes, we have this utility that I have already used in the past. When I click on "Export" nothing seems to happen.

Is there one thing I don't understand.

Thank you for your help and congratulations to the TNG community. I have rarely seen such dynamism in these volunteer exchanges.

Jean-Pierre,

You do need to tell TNG where the media can be found.

Have you entered the local paths?

Hi Rob,

 

Thank you for your answer. In fact, I indicate the path as follows. We also have thousands of obituaries.

I start the process, and then I find this in the FTP directory.

But where are the media compressed in ZIP?

Have a good day and thank you for your assistance.

Have you read this article?

Import Media Using GEDCOM - TNG_Wiki

I think the maximum file size for a GEDCOM file is 348 MB

Not sure how big yours is with 145.000 persons

Does TNG indicate that the export ran to completion?

Seeing those items in the folder indicates to me that the export didn't finish to completion. I just ran an export and it ended with this at the bottom of the screen

 

and these 2 files are in the gedcom folder
