Thumbnails on contents

[itayh]

Hi All,

I add "Create thumbnails of the item" content rule for all the items in a space (taken from version 0.2 of thumbnails).

When I add an image content to the space I don't see any thumbnail.

Can someone help?

Basically what I want to see is that when I add pictures or movies to space I will see small pictures that will represents the movies/pictures.

Hi,

I manage to run thumbnails on jpeg items.
Does any one know how to convert video type (3pg) to jpeg in order to have thumbnail on video also.

Thanks in advance

A new version of the thumbnails project has been released which supports video thumbnails.

For that particular video type you'll also have to register a new mimetype in alfresco.

See http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Adding_a_Mime_Type for details but you should be able to create a file named something like mimetype-map-custom.xml containing:

<alfresco-config area="mimetype-map">
   
   <config evaluator="string-compare" condition="Mimetype Map">
      <mimetypes>
         <mimetype mimetype="video/x-3gpp2" display="3GPP2 Multimedia File">
            <extension display="3GPP2 Multimedia File" default="true">3g2</extension>
         </mimetype>
      </mimetypes>
   </config>
   
</alfresco-config>‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

and a mimetype-map-context.xml:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<!DOCTYPE beans PUBLIC '-//SPRING//DTD BEAN//EN' 'http://www.springframework.org/dtd/spring-beans.dtd'>

<beans>

   <bean id="mimetypeConfigService" class="org.alfresco.config.xml.XMLConfigService" init-method="init">
        <constructor-arg>
            <bean class="org.alfresco.config.source.UrlConfigSource">
                <constructor-arg>
                    <list>
                        <value>classpath:alfresco/mimetype/mimetype-map.xml</value>
                        <value>classpath:alfresco/mimetype/mimetype-map-openoffice.xml</value>
                        <value>classpath:alfresco/extension/mimetype-map-custom.xml</value>
                    </list>
                </constructor-arg>
            </bean>
        </constructor-arg>
    </bean>

</beans>

place both files in your alfresco/extensions conig directory and the new mimetype should be registered.
