What is the problem you are having with rclone?
Seems some album names are multi-lined and rclone is not able to sync these.
What is your rclone version (output from rclone version
)
$ rclone --version
rclone v1.56.0
- os/version: ubuntu 20.04 (64 bit)
- os/kernel: 5.4.0-80-generic (x86_64)
- os/type: linux
- os/arch: amd64
- go/version: go1.16.5
- go/linking: static
- go/tags: none
$
Which OS you are using and how many bits (eg Windows 7, 64 bit)
Ubuntu 20.04 LTS 64-bit
Which cloud storage system are you using? (eg Google Drive)
Google Photos
The command you were trying to run (eg rclone copy /tmp remote:tmp
)
rclone sync --transfers=10 --max-duration=59m --retries 1 --timeout 1m --fast-list --gphotos-include-archived --gphotos-start-year=1970 --log-level INFO --log-file=photos_2021-07-26_16-02_shared-album.txt gphotos:shared-album /REDACTED_FULL_PATH/shared-album
Problem
I noticed this at the top of the log file:
2021/07/26 16:02:01 INFO : Local file system at /REDACTED_FULL_PATH/shared-album: Transfer session deadline: 2021/07/26 17:01:01

These two are shared albums shared with me by someone else so I don't control the album name. I looked them up in the Google Photos web UI and they seem to look normal. However it seems the album name is multi lined based on the log (some \n I think?). I confirmed this by running:
$ rclone lsd gphotos:shared-album

My attempt to create an album that has a multi-lined album name has failed (at least via the Google Photos web UI). These two albums are a few years old so it could be that a bug in the past allowed creating albums with multi-line names and that is no longer possible.
Next step
Seems rclone
needs to handle the case where an album name is multi-lined?
