Not displaying server side video thumbnails #897
Comments
Hi @fxshpac, Show thumbnails for videos is an improvment for our app. |
Yeah, video thumbnails would be very good. @DeepDiver1975 anything that needs to be added to the server to enable this? |
I have installed ffmpeg and ffmpegthumbnailer. |
PR is currently not possible as I have committed it directly. |
PR: #1035 |
Remaining problem is that in gridView the user cannot distinguish between image and video if both have a thumbnail. |
The thumbnail for videos should have a play button overlayed: https://github.com/owncloud/core/blob/master/core/img/actions/view-play.png (SVG in the same folder), that’s the common way to distinguish videos from images. Film strips are an outdated metaphor. ;) |
Ok. I will add this. |
Yeah, half the size and centered sounds good. |
Maybe third the size – experiment and see what looks good. |
@jancborchardt What do you think? |
Nice, looking great! It’s also good that in the thumbnail view the title is still below the video. Maybe it makes sense to omit the file extension though? Just a thought :) The better version of the play button is the scalable SVG: https://github.com/owncloud/core/blob/master/core/img/actions/view-play.svg as mentioned in the same folder as the PNG. Does that work? :) |
Ah just a detail: The play button is visually not in the center because it has more weight to the left. It needs to be moved to the right a bit. Instead of aligning the image file itself in the center, imagine a circle around the play button touching all the corners, and align that. See https://medium.com/@erqiudao/the-play-button-is-not-optical-alignment-4cea11bda175 |
SVG does not work. But I can save it as a better scaled png and use this. |
Yup, both sounds good. ;) |
@jancborchardt Please see if this version is better than the last one. (For me it is not...) |
ups :/ |
Last screenshot looks great! :) 👍 from me. |
Then it is ready to test? @davivel |
PR commented. |
From #1181: Video thumbnails should not show file name below. |
Every file type is checked. If server provides video thumbnails, client will show. Solved. |
Running owncloud core version 8.0.0-5 and android version 1.7.0, I want to report that, in gallery view, the thumbnails for videos are still showing default icon, even after I enabled OC/Preview/Movie on server side. The web interface displays them just fine. Therefore I suspect it's the Android app which is not taking advantage of the API to retrieve these thumbnails for videos.
