Converting photos very slow and high CPU consumption with Synology DSM 4.1

After the installation of the Photo Station application on my Synology ds413j, I transfer all my photos to the photo's folder created by this application.

So I transfer my photos to the NAS and then I can see the NAS CPU running 100% for a very very long time...

You can follow the "Conversion Progress" of the photos but nothing seems to be converted despite the fact the high CPU rate.



You can follow these 4 steps to solve the problem :

1) Enable SSH on the NAS.

Control Panel > Terminal > check the Enable SSH Service box.


2) Connect to the NAS (with a ssh client like putty or mRemoteNG) with the root account 

3) Edit the "/usr/syno/etc/thumb.conf" and "/usr/syno/etc.defaults/thumb.conf" files and comment or remove these lines : 

[thumb 1280]
phase=0
size=1280
quality=90
filename=SYNOPHOTO:THUMB_XL.jpg


4) Restart the service

/usr/syno/etc/rc.d/S77synomkthumbd.sh restart

Cheers !
