Unsolved heic not showing up

[andreasdueren]

I am experiencing this weird bug where images from an iPhone will not show up on an android device or the online UI if they are heic files. Is immich missing a necessary package here or does anyone have an idea whats wrong?

When I manually trigger thumbnail creation my logs get spammed with this stuff:

I think those are two different issues. I can reproduce the machine learning problem and looking into how to fix this.

For HEIC images, can you maybe share one which allows us to reproduce it?

[nebulon]

I have fixed up the machine learning part with the latest package release now.

I was also able to replicate the heic thumbnail generation error. Not yet sure what fails there, but possibly some missing libraries in the app package.

[andreasdueren]

@nebulon ok I was just about to send you a file. Buts it’s pretty much any, I tried files created by two different devices and uploaded from two devices as well.

So you don’t need any file anymore, correct?

[nebulon]

So what I found so far is that immich is using https://www.npmjs.com/package/sharp for thumbnail generation which in turn uses https://github.com/libvips/libvips which should be setup for heic in the package, still so far I had not succeeded to let it generate thumbnails. Have to debug this further. For the interested, the upstream change adding heic support was https://github.com/immich-app/immich/commit/38c968d47e8f24237228a6204de59aac3c601313
