General QuMagie Video and Photo showing and thumbnail issues

Post by marck479 »

Hi Folks,

I have had my QNAP 431K for a few days now and unfortunately I am getting desperate.
Before you send me links:
I have already explored numerous forum posts and Google search results about my problems and have tried quite a bit - if not everything.

I have the problem that numerous files do not create thumbnails and thus are not viewable.
I have already tried installing Plex, Video Manager as well as Cayin MEdiasign Player (license also activated).
Unfortunately I can't get the system to display anything properly.
I have now uploaded four files, which all work and are not defective or otherwise in the following formats:
jpg, mp4, png and heic

Image

Only the format jpg (first image in the screenshot) is recognized and displayed (also as thumbnail).
The other formats neither have a thumbnail, nor can they be opened and displayed.

I urgently ask for hints here.
Looking for an alternative for Google Photos, I decided to use the QNAP because of positive reviews. Unfortunately, however, nothing works here felt as far as the QuMagie function is concerned.

I have just performed even a complete reset (COMPLETE).

Unfortunately, this has also not led to success.

Please let me get support.
If you want me to test further or provide logs, let me know.

Many thanks in advance!

LG Marc

This is a user forum, so we don;t need any logs or any other support info .. we cannot change or fix any programs here (and QNAP does not come here)

Best to open a ticket with them to complain. Also make sure that you DON't make your NAS accessible from WAN, as you said you wanted to replace Google Photos

Thanks for the hint.
I dont want to make it accessible from the WAN directly.
I planned using the cloud adapter (without forwarding any ports). Just so I can view Files and Pics from anywhere stored there.
I will try to open a case there. I just wanted to make sure there is no way I can solve it before I open a ticket.
