Silvio Orbino
First one: u have an option implemented to shutdown windows when job is done, i use to drag and drop the video file over the AMT icon on windows desktop, to make it work (comfortable and fast!), could u implement an option to quit the program automatically when the job is done as well?
The Auto Movie-Thumbnailer is an automation GUI to batch create Screencaps, Thumbnail Index Pictures, Preview Pictures or Contact Sheets for any given number of movies. It supports many different input (AVI, MPG, Quicktime, Real-Media, Windows-Media,.) formats, in fact every input format that is supported by MPlayer.
I am using OMEKA S v1.4 and nothing has been solved because, to answer @mrPositiveEnergy, the thumbnails tab offers to add a thumbnail from your own files or sites media but not from the media attached to my content. Moreover, I want my thumbnail to be automatically generated when imported.
Yes, tumblerd is running with tumbler-plugins-extra installed. I can also see that tumblerd calls the thumbnailer, but gdk-pixbuf-thumbnailer/xcf2png fail to generate the thumbnails for RAF and XCF files.
May I ask if you use Gimp from the repositories or from snap/flatpak? Whenever you save a XCF file, Gimp automatically generates the thumbnail. In case Gimp is intalled via apt, the thumbnail is stored in /.cache/thumbnails from where the file browsers can access it. In case Gimp is installed from snap/flatpak, it stores its thumbnails in a different cache, which is not accessible for the file browsers.
To retrieve a thumbnail from an asses simply call $asset->getThumbnail("thumbnail-name") on the asset object, which will returnan \Pimcore\Model\Asset\Image\Thumbnail object. The thumbnail object's __toString() method returns the path to the thumbnail file, for example:/Car%20Images/ac%20cars/68/image-thumb__68__content/automotive-car-classic-149813.jpg
Pimcore auto-generates a thumbnail if requested but doesn't exist on the file system and is directly called via it's file path (not using any ofthe getThumbnail() methods).For example: Call -thumb__6644__contentimages/img_0037.jpeg(/examples/panama/ is the path to the source asset, 6644 is the ID of the source asset, contentimages is the name of the thumbnail configuration, img_0037.jpeg the filename of the source asset) directly in your browser. Now pimcore checksif the asset with the ID 6644 and the thumbnail with the key "contentimages" exists, if yes the thumbnail isgenerated on-the-fly and delivered to the client. When requesting the images again the image is directly served bythe webserver (Apache, Nginx), because the file already exists (just the same way it works with the getThumbnail() methods).
This is a special functionality to allow embedding high resolution (ppi/dpi) images.The following is only necessary in special use-cases like Web-to-Print, in typical web-based cases, Pimcoreautomatically adds the srcset attribute to and tags automatically, so no manual work is necessary.
This is especially useful in the case you want to serve thumbnails depending on the ppi of the device screen or incombination with Web2Print documents (browser preview with normal size, tripled in size for PDF ouptut).Pimcore also utilizes this functionality internally to provide the automatically added high.res support on and tags.So again, this feature is only useful in some edge-cases.
If your're using media queries in your thumbnail configuration pimcore automatically generates a tag when calling $asset->getThumbnail("example")->getHtml().But in some cases it is necessary to get single thumbnails for certain media queries out of the thumbnail object, which is described in the examples below.
Pimcore supports focal points on images, which are considered when images are automatically cropped.At the moment this makes only sense if the transformation COVER is used. If a focal point is set onthe source image, it is automatically considered and the thumbnail is cropped accordingly to ensure the focusof the image is on the focal point.
Even if this setting does quite a lot of stuff automatically, it's still required to set a quality in the thumbnailconfiguration. This quality will be used by jpeg and png and if not configured otherwise also for webp.If avif is supported by Imagick this won't use the quality from the thumbnail configuration, but uses a fixed value.
It is possible to customize the used alternative image formats and their qualities by using the following configuration:
For your Lambda function code, you can use Python, Node.js or Java. Install the language support tools and a package manager for the language that you want to use. For Java, the example commands to create your deployment package use the Apache Maven build automation tool.
To quickly create a thumbnail, choose one of the three thumbnail options generated by Youtube. Automated video thumbnails are generated once the video has been fully uploaded, and a thumbnail is selected to be a thumbnail. Although selecting one of the automatically generated thumbnails is quick and easy, since the thumbnails can not be edited nor customized, this method is not recommended.
Thunar is my main file manager. Normally it automatically creates thumbnail images of all images in the directory being viewed. After experimenting with other Linux distros then installing Arch Linux once and for all, Thunar is not showing thumbs. Image files all get the same generic image icon.
Make sure you cd to the folder first.
If you want more control on what you touch (eheh), just update the glob to taste, e.g. *.mkv.
No need to put your hands in automated configuration folders.
Concrete CMS version 7 contains a completely new way of handling image thumbnails. Thumbnail types are defined in the Dashboard, and when images of sufficient size are uploaded into the File manager, thumbnails of those dimensions will automatically be created. You can learn more about how these work with responsive themes in the Supporting Responsive Images in your Concrete Theme.
These thumbnails aren't just useful for responsive themes, however. With a little bit of custom development, you can use custom thumbnails to power image galleries and more. You get the best of both worlds: thumbnails are auto-generated to your exact specifications, but also support the built-in Concrete Image Editor for specific overrides.
Next, go through the File Manager and rescan every image you have. This will regenerate thumbnails for your images, including the new thumbnail type that you added. You'll only have to do this once; new files that are uploaded will automatically have a thumbnail for this new type.
Your code is cleaner, and more importantly, it doesn't suffer from any of the drawbacks listed above. Your images are computed at upload or rescan time, which means your pages load faster. Additionally, if you don't like one of the automatically created images, just edit the File's thumbnail through the File Manager Image Editor. You can get the image just right. Using this technique making an image gallery in Concrete has never been easier.
If I'm not mistaken, there's no way to tell nautilus which thumbnailer to use, and its just hard coded to use totem.
this is why you have to fool it with fake totem.thumbnailer file that actually uses ffmpegthumbnailer.
I'm not 100% sure how accurate the information is on the website, but I know that I use nautilus with ffmpegthumbnailer. Unfortunately, I don't have acces to my linux machine at the moment to verify it.
this is for gnome2. gnome3 uses dconf instead of gconf, and I've checked that you can't set the thumbnailer via dconf. see the comments on that page. there's also a link to page with instructions to do exactly what I've done.
It works fine for me without having to rename the ffmpegthumbnailer file... All I had to do was pacman -Rs totem. Nautilus isn't "hardcoded" to use totem.thumbnailer, but it does "prefer it" when its there. If totem.thumbnailer is not present it will use ffmpeg.thumbnailer.
Are you sure that you typed the command correctly (e.g. escaping whitespace characters if they are present in the file name?) I suppose you could always try to recompile ffmpegthumbnailer to verify wether it is a packaging issue. Other than that, I'm clueluess.
totem-video-thumbnailer, the default tumbnailer for gnome, should work fine in the first place, so why would I even use another thumbnailer ? I'm just trying to get around the issue without actually solving it.
I tried running totem-video-thumbnailer manually with some video files, and I was surprised to see that it works just fine, there's nothing wrong with it, so I'm even more intrigued as to why thumbnails for videos aren't automatically generated.
I checked the contents of /.cache/thumbnails, there are some 20-something files in /fail/gnome-thumbnail-factory , not many, considering I have like a thousand video files, whereas in the other folders, /normal and /large all the thumbnails there are for songs, pictures and random files, not a single one for videos.
So I came to the conclusion that gnome, nautilus, or whatever the balls it is isn't even trying to generate thumbnails for videos, therefore what I need is a way to activate automatic video thumbnail generation with totem and nothing else, as to how to do that, I have no idea whatsoever, that's why I'm here
