Optional per clip settings for thumbnails and contextual menu
Hey Boris,
what about a right clic on a video to have an option in the pull-down menu to re-generate thumbnails? Maybe even having a small window appear with custom interval or number of thumbs settings
Useful for thumbs generation errors (it happens), file updates "under the hood" and also for having a global longer interval but shorter intervals for shorter clips when needed or viceversa, no?
Cheers!!!
I like the idea of "regenerate screenshot" - happy to accept a PR for it 👍
I would want it to be hidden behind a toggle (just like the Delete button).
Unfortunately, this change would be a bit intricate (would require updating the right-click menu sizes when the number of items changes -- so it's not a simple "add one line of code" change 😓 )
I don't have the knowledge to work on the code myself unfortunately. I've seen that in some cases (mainly i/o intensive workloads) the thumbs are not generated for all the files. A subsequent try without intensive i/o and with all the dedicated storage bw allocated to VHA3, it generates all the thumbs correctly. In this instance (and many others) the chance to selectively regenerate the thumbs for one video file (or more, selected) would be very very handy.
I'll be happy to help you learn a bit of coding - I added instructions on another comment you left 🤝 https://github.com/whyboris/Video-Hub-App/issues/685#issuecomment-897652245
Adding small features to a mature software codebase is often easier than building a lot from scratch. Some changes, like this one, might not be too much to do (learn while doing!), and I'll help along 🤝 😄
