[Bug 1391286] Re: Fails to generate thumbnail for small videos recorded with camera-app

 

This seems to be related to the androidmedia elements from
gstreamer1.0-hybris, so changing the source package link: I can't
reproduce it with the standard elements.

In the hope that this might be a quirk of the pipeline used by vs-thumb,
I've ported the utility over to using the standard playbin element to
auto-plug the full pipeline (the same as mediahub):

https://code.launchpad.net/~jamesh/thumbnailer/thumbnail-
playbin/+merge/254025

The results are the same for these extra short videos.  Jim: if you've
got any ideas, I'd love to hear them.

** Package changed: gst-plugins-base1.0 (Ubuntu) => gst-plugins-bad1.0
(Ubuntu)

Title:
  Fails to generate thumbnail for small videos recorded with camera-app

Status in Thumbnail generator for all kinds of files:
  New
Status in gst-plugins-bad1.0 package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in thumbnailer package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Videos with less than one sec recorded by camera-app (like when you
  click on the record button and immediately stops the recording
  process) have problems while generating thumbnail. This seems to be a
  problem to gallery-app since if we have one file like this on the
  collection the thumbnails took a long time to generate.

  I added an unit test that seems to fail on this branch:
  lp:~artmello/thumbnailer/thumbnailer-no_thumbnail_video

  Attached a video sample that seems to fail
