I have enabled "Extract thumbnails and video information" but only video info gets extracted, no thumbnails for music videos. Movies and TV shows get thumbnails extracted as expected.

Every Helix RPi build I have tried have this issue. On my Linux x86 installation I get thumbnails automatically for music videos so it seems like it is related to the RPi builds.

What do I need to do to get relevant information logged, is it enough if I navigate to the music videos list before posting a debug log or is there some other action I can take to trigger thumbnail extraction?

I am using OpenElec on Raspberry Kodi 14 (official) Version 4.97.2.5.0
and also not getting Thumbanils on video files. Extraction thumbnails not working
Files are added over SMB (Windows Share)

On Windows, Kodi same version, extraction is working perfectlly

Not for everyone...

Maybe a debug log would help narrow down the problem.

Maybe this will help in debuging the problem

Here are some logs. I deleted .kodi reboted RPi/restarted Kodi, added a source for music videos, scanned, navigated to the music videos list and waited for it to populate with extracted thumbs and info. On the RPi I also enabled extract thumbs and info. Both sources points to the same NAS and are nfs mounts.

There is no trace of "ExtractThumb" in the RPi log.

It looks like there are two settings "extractflags" and "extractthumb" defined in the settings system, but only one of them shows up in the GUI.
I've added a commit that will be the next Milhouse build that exposes the other one. I'd be interested if enabling both helps your issue.

Then we may have another bug. It extracts thumbnails for TV shows and movies as it is now but not for music videos. It fails to extract thumbs for some of the TV shows, all of them in various formats and codecs. That may be related to the issue Milhouse liked to here above. I'll try the next build and report my findings.

With extractthumb enabled thumbs are beeing extracted in OpenELEC (Milhouse) - Version: devel-20141211210127-r19784-g1d67e8f [Build #1211].

However, some thumbs takes really, really long time to extract (hours). Is there some kind of timeout that is kicking in and kills the thumb extraction if it is taking too long? It seems like you have to go in and out of a list view multiple times to extract thumbs and some seems to never get extracted. It is not that many files that need thumb extraction, only about 30 or so. This is unrelated to the initial issue of thumbs not being extracted at all.

Also, the TV shows that did get thumbs before, where getting them from thetvdb and local jpegs.

Your log has:

Code:
15:15:10  69.424904 T:2822210624   DEBUG: ExtractThumb - decode failed in /storage/nas/videos/TV/Brott och straff/Brott och straff.ep01.ts after 161 packets.

which sounds identical to this issue.
Looks like FernetMenta is looking into it, so best wait for that to be resolved, and then see if there's any remaining issues.

nikstra · 2014-12-12, 18:13

I have seen somewhere that some "decode failed" messages was related to falling back to software decode so I wasn't sure about those. I will mark this thread as solved and wait for a solution by FernetMenta.

Thanks!
