[FavoriteMedia]: Is there a way to reset thumbnails to dead thumbnail links?

Open Croikey1972 opened this issue 1 year ago • 6 comments

Describe the solution you'd like

Upon opening Betterdiscord I've noticed that the thumbnails for both pictures and videos are blank. Clicking on "Local Database" And "Cache all medias" seem to not work at all, as it stays in a forever buffering screen.

I've read that the current issue is due to Discord changing how data is stored on their servers resulting in thumbnails dying every 14 days. Is there a way to implement a "reset thumbails" command for the Script? I assume this would prompt the script to replace all dead thumbails with new ones.

Is there any error in the console (ctrl+shift+i) when clicking "Cache all medias"?

I've since manually saved most of the content and deleted several pages worth to start again. A new bug seems to have appeared, as even trying to click Local Database will prompt an irreversible crash after 10-30 seconds. Also, "ctrl+shift+i" appeared to do nothing.

Can attest to this being an issue again. Opening the favorite media tabs prompts a ton of blob links with "ERR_FILE_NOT_FOUND". And despite Local Database seemingly downloading them all, it refuses to show thumbnails for a good 100 or so images/videos.

I know this post is a year old but I have the same issue. But if I open DIscord on my phone or use regular Discord those same Gifs are not dead.

Image This is what the console says for errors, but those same 404 gifs load on Mobile and regular Discord. Some GIF's I have saved from before I ever installed this plugin and are from years ago and they report as dead despite working just fine before. ignore the gif titles.
