No video thumbnails for mapped network drives
Posted: 09 Jul 2022 08:53
Video thumbnails are not working on a mapped network drive, but they are working through UNC path. Picture thumbnails are working fine though.
For example:
If I access a network share on my NAS with a UNC path like this...
\\NAS\Pics_and_Vids\Party
... all video- and picture thumbnails are loading just fine.
But if I map this UNC path to a letter (\\NAS\Pics_and_Vids\Party --> L:) and then go to this mapped network drive only the thumbnails for pictures are loaded - but not the video thumbnails.
It's the same folder with the same files so it can't be a problem with file types, codecs or stuff like that. I can't find a setting for that so I assume it's a bug.
