flac thumbnails not showing in Dophin #2

I am not sure if this tool is to create thumbnails or if it is just to show them but either way my flac songs do not show their images on dolphin, If you need any more info just ask

Os: Archlinux Dolphin version: 22.08.1

almost forgot, I am on version 1.1.0 of ffmpeg-audio-thumbnailer

saltedcoffii commented 2 years ago

Hmm, let me look into this. Are you getting any thumbnails from this package at all? Do you have mp3 files with a thumbnail?

Also, could you try running rm -rf ~/.thumbnails ~/.cache/thumbnails to clear the thumbnail cache and then restart dolphin? If neither of those work, get back to me and I'll look into it.

Are you using Arch Linux's official ffmpeg version, or a version from the AUR? Would you mind running ffmpeg -codecs 2> /dev/null | grep flac and make sure the line DEAI.S flac FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec) shows up?

doubletimedan commented 2 years ago

ok so I checked some mp3 files with thumbnails and they do in fact show their thumbnails, idk how to check if they are coming from this package though
I ran rm -rf ~/.thumbnails ~/.cache/thumbnails, then restarted dolphin and nothing changed
I ran ffmpeg -codecs 2> /dev/null | grep flac and it does show DEAI.S flac FLAC (Free Lossless Audio Codec)

would you mind emailing me one of the flac files you're using

doubletimedan commented 2 years ago

What's your email?

saltedcoffii commented 2 years ago

Oh i put <> around it and i guess that made it disappear, it's "cassandrajwatergate AT gmail DOT com"

doubletimedan commented 2 years ago

No problem, I just sent you an email

saltedcoffii commented 2 years ago

The flac file that you sent me is thumbnailing just fine for me on nautilus and dolphin. I don't think whatever issue you're having is with ffmpeg-audio-thumbnailer. I'd love to help you debug, but this is the limit of my knowledge of how thumbnailers work, unfortunately.

saltedcoffii commented 2 years ago

Could you send me your /usr/share/thumbnailers directory to see if there might be any conflicts or issues there? If you aren't sure how to do that, you can cd into and writable directory (~/Downloads is fine) run:

cp -r /usr/share/thumbnailers .
tar -cvf doubletimedans-thumbnailers.tar thumbnailers
zstd -T0 --ultra -22 --rm doubletimedans-thumbnailers.tar
rm -r thumbnailers

And then just send me doubletimedans-thumbnailers.tar.zst

doubletimedan commented 2 years ago

alright I have just sent you an email with that folder

saltedcoffii commented 2 years ago

I'm sorry, I don't know. If you figure it out, let me know.

doubletimedan commented 2 years ago

Alright np I will, can you send me the file you get when you run "pacman -Q > flac_thumbnail.txt" I probably don't have a package that I need for it to show or something

saltedcoffii commented 2 years ago

flac_thumbnail.txt

Sorry that took me so long @doubletimedan Please let me know if you figure out what the problem is

doubletimedan commented 1 year ago

No luck, I have to switch back to windows for a while to do an important project so I will not be able to test it on Linux again but I can say the thumbnails do show up now on windows and if it shows up for you then it was probably my fault somehow so I'm going to close the issue as it's nothing got to do with your package, thank you for all the help anyways!
