# Web File Manager
|
|
|
|
The below will setup ```filebrowser``` as a file manager for your photos on the PiFrame. This is a web based application and works really well for adding and removing pictures from a PiFrame. It's a lot more accessible than some of the other options we have documented.
|
|
|
|
## Important Notes
|
|
|
|
* The setup below tunes ```filebrowser``` to be more resource efficient. Specifically we disable picture thumbnails and set the picture processing threads to 1.
|
|
* ```filebrowser``` can use upwards of 512Mb of memory and 4 cores of the Raspberry Pi (that's *all* of them) when generating image thumbnails and rendering images. This is why we have made adjustments below. Please keep this in mind if you make adjustments.
|
|
* ```filebrowser``` **always** re-generates thumbnails when the pictures folder is loaded. This is not ideal and another reason we have made adjustments below. Please keep this in mind if you make ajustments.
