Hashy named images do not show up in the clients

[bigeyez 7]

Hi

 

 

I use this line to create a rather random named images for browsing some images in random order. The script just renames existing images, nothing fancy but these images do not show in the clients, they show with broken image icon replacement , and they have no thumbnails. The same images (original ones with the real names) that are used to create the random folder  show up fine.

for f in *; do ext=$(echo "$f" | sed 's|\([^.]*\)||'); echo "$f"; mv "$f" "$(uuidgen)$ext"; done

So they have names like this

They have all chmodded 777 so it cant be the file permissions.

So they are showing, just with no image?

Yes they are listed as icons when I enter the folder but no thumbnails, just empty squares, and if I click on any I just get a broken image icon.

 

I know it kind of does not make sense. I will investigate it further to  see what the issue is. Based on your reaction, this does not look like a bug in Emby.

So they're folders with thumbnail images? What are they folders of? What is the content type of the library they belong to?
