.3gp filenames are missing

Hi,

I have an album for .3gp video that come from some Android devices.

The videos play just fine with the Quick Time Alternative plugins installed, but the thumbnails do not have any filenames - only the extension. So, there are three thumbnails in the album, all called "3gp".

Is there something that I have missed in the admin about thumbnails and renaming/labelling?

    Zenphoto cannot create thumbnails from/for videos, you have to create and upload them yourself manually. Info on our user guide's troubleshooting.
  • Thanks for your reply acrylian,

    I guess I didn't explain it clearly...

    I am not expecting thumbnails, but I would like the filenames to appear.

    At the moment, there are three items in the album, all of which have the generic thumbnails. Is it possible to have the filenames appear as titles beneath the thumbnails?

    Can I post a screen-shot somewhere so that you can see what I mean?

    I indeed don't understand. Zenphoto will always use the filename as the title if you don't specific a title on the backend.

    I am not sure if 3gp files have metadata and what and if our video class can read that at all at the moment. If you want the titles to appear on the theme that depends on the theme used.

    On thumbs generally no titles are shown so you might need to modify the theme you are using. Info on theming on the related tutorial.
  • Thanks again,

    I have modified the "default" theme file "album.php" to include the image title beneath the thumbnails.

    <?php echo getBareImageTitle(); ?>
