Could anyone help and tell me how to trigger the generation of thumbnail in Qmultimedia?

or it will only generate when "somebody" really click the particular album?

Thanks

Hi Jeff,

look here:

You can put this script into /usr/local/sbin and chmod it to an executable.

then you can start imagegeneration for all folders in /Qmultimedia. Usually the original binary should do this, but it does not work for my TS109 (several subfolders and ~ 13K images). I've also changed the crontab where i start this script instead of the ImR_all. The only problem is that i have to copy back the script to the NAS after firmware upgrade, since it is deletetd.
