Show as video folder, in auto upload, if folder has videos in subfolders

[shemgp]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I added DCIM for auto upload as Picture, but there is no Video Icon for auto uploading that folder since the videos are inside DCIM/Camera.

Describe the solution you'd like

DCIM should be shown as Picture folder and Video folder too.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The Camera Folder is recognized as a Video folder, so I just added it and changed the paths to point to InstantUpload/DCIM/Camera, instead of the default to InstantUpload/Camera. But it would be nice if I can just add the whole DCIM as a Video Folder.

Thanks for looking into this.

I've been using the nextcloud app for some years now and today I finally understood why some folders only sync images and not the videos...

this issue seems to be related to the problem I faced, although my problem is slightly different. My thoughts:

• first, I think there's an UX issue: It's just not obvious that the icon indicates what kind of files are synchronized.
• you should be able to change the file types that should be synchronized for a given folder; I found no way to do this
• today, I re-installed the nextcloud App and noticed that the Camera folder is now detected twice: one for images and one for videos. I guess, because by chance there were some videos in there. So, as far as i experienced, once a folder is detected for auto-upload, the file-type is not changed later, even if other file types are added there later.
• In the list of auto-upload directories, you should be able to see the path: When you have a SD card, you have two DCIM there and don't know which one is where. In fact, handling of sub-folders could be better. In many cases they simply could be included with the parent folder (as described above)
