Describe the bug Since Viewer updated to 4.0.0, .dng images aren’t able to be loaded as previews, just downloaded. They also don’t appear in the Photos app.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Install camerarawpreviews, ensure .dng previews are generated and visible (they are in this case)
Click on Files app
1. Click on the desired subfolder
Click on the desired .dng image
.dng pops up as a download, rather than loading a preview like with .jpg, etc

Expected behavior RAW images used to load previews as a pop up image like .jpg. This no longer occurs

Screenshots N/A, logs:

I was able to finally get the dng’s to pop up like jpeg’s instead of download by adding “image/x-dcraw”, “image/x-adobe-dng”, “image/dng”, to the viewer-init.js and viewer-init.js.map. Not sure if that’s viable, but it works. Still not loading in photos, I’ll probably cross post that in the photos app. Hopefully this helps point into the right direction, though.

Some more feedback. From Firefox console error logs:

This is because the API of viewer has changed, you have to pass more now, I am currently writing an app based on this app for AVIF, and am in the process of fixing the problem. https://github.com/nextcloud/viewer/blob/master/src/models/images.js https://github.com/nextcloud/viewer/blob/master/src/components/Images.vue It has to be done this way now, even though it's outdated https://github.com/ONLYOFFICE/onlyoffice-nextcloud/blob/master/src/viewer.js , this is the new method. https://www.npmjs.com/package/@nextcloud/viewer

(function (OCA) {
	if (!OCA.Viewer) {
		console.warn('Viewer not available')
		return
	}

	const RAWViewer = {
		name: 'RAWViewer',
		props: {
			filename: { type: String, default: null },
			fileid: { type: Number, default: null },
			previewPath: { type: String, default: null },
		},
		render(createElement) {
			if (!this.previewPath) {
				return createElement('div', 'Kein Preview verfügbar')
			}
			const url = OC.generateUrl(this.previewPath)
			return createElement('img', {
				attrs: {
					src: url,
					alt: this.filename || 'RAW preview',
					style: 'max-width: 100%; max-height: 100%; object-fit: contain;',
				},
				on: {
					load: () => {
						this.doneLoading()
					}
				}
			})
		},
	}

	OCA.Viewer.registerHandler({
		id: 'camerarawpreviews',
		group: 'media',
		mimes: [
			'image/x-dcraw',
		],
		//mimesAliases: { 'image/x-dcraw': 'image/jpeg' }, // Fallback
		component: RAWViewer,
	})

	console.log('RAWViewer registered!')
})(OCA)

RAW images, specifically DNG, aren’t loading previews, just downloading
