I've edited the usergallery plugin (with a lot of help ) to display
the Logos of Quicktime(mov) or WindowsMedia(wmv) if theres such a file in the gallery. Now I had the following Idea...
My Digicam records mov's and add the first frame as a small jpg with the same name.
Example: P1020173.MOV and a P1020173.JPG.
Is it possible to let the gallery search the directory for mov-files and if there are jpg files with the same name only with another extension (of course), it shows the jpg instead of the "quicktime-icon"?
Edit: And this Image is only shown once of course as link for the video and not twice (one for the video and one because itself is a jpg).
That would be possible, but involve a fair amount of coding.
Using the serendipity 1.1 alpha mediadatabase this should become a bit easier because there are more hooks to dive into, and more abstracted function calls to get properties of a media file.
The problem will be that videos are not detected as images, and thus no thumbnails (.serendipityThumb) will be emitted....
Best regards,
