Automatic generation of thumbnails for image records in DSpace 7.4

[Jorge Alberto Bonilla Castaneda]

hello.

Is it possible somehow to make the thumbnail of the record be generated automatically? , either with a command line or when creating the record, which will take, for example, the first page of the attached pdf

Thanks in advance

Hello, thank you very much for your contribution.

guiding me in the cron job and the command that creates the covers execute
[dspace]/bin/dspace filter-media

but I don't create them, is there something else I have to configure?

Hello Jorge,

It's been a while but here what I recall doing to get it work. You need to edit [dspace]/config/dspace.cfg and enable the plugins you see highlighted in yellow in the attached screenshot. Try it I hope it help you to get it working.
