I am using the VideoJS plugin to display videos in Piwigo, with thumbnails put in the sub-directory pwg_representative to force these thumbnails to be displayed instead of the "film wheel" default image.
After several tests, I'm concluding that :

  • Thumbnail files are not recognized as such when extension is built with uppercase characters (e.g. file_name.JPG). It seems mandatory that the thumbnail filename ends with a lowercase extension (e.g. file_name.jpg)
    The issues are :
  • This point is not documented anywhere, as far as I'm aware of.
  • There are no results regarding pwg_representative files in the physical album sync. process, claiming that such an uppercase character extension is not permitted.

Is it possible either

  • to add that specific rule regarding the extension case in the Piwigo documentation ;
    or
  • to allow such uppercase extension (somewhere through a permitted file_ext list) ;

AND

  • to display the pwg_representative directory/file results after album synchronization.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Some users upload poster files manually and get stuck. So it would indeed be great that Piwigo accepts files with .jpg, .JPG, .jpeg, .JPEG, .png, .PNG and even .gif and .GIF extensions.
