[Bug 896707] [NEW] Nautlius does not support WebP thumbnail previews?

 

Public bug reported:

I was trying to use Google's WebP image format and installed both libwebp and
libwebp-dev. 

Nautlius doesn't support this filetype for showing thumbnails? Now it says that
these files are 'RIFF-audio' filetypes.

Bastien Nocera posted the following here:

" See http://cgit.freedesktop.org/xdg/shared-mime-info/tree/HACKING#n31 for how
to make requests about adding new formats. "

But I don't know how that should be done?

Thanks!
