I was wondering if there is any way to generate thumbnails from all files (image and video media) in a folder with (preferably) the command line or anything else really. I use xfce4 and tumbler. Please do not give systemd-specific answers, as I do not use this service.

  • Please edit the question to limit it to a specific problem with enough detail to identify an adequate answer. – Community Apr 04 '23 at 17:48
  • @Gantendo Is there a way to do that with jpeg and the like too? Also, do I just put those in my ~/.cache/thumbnails folder or is there somewhere else? – thehashslingingslasher Apr 04 '23 at 17:51
  • @Community I'm not sure how much more specific I can get. Can you give an example? – thehashslingingslasher Apr 04 '23 at 17:52

  • With imagemagick you can make it even cooler. https://superuser.com/questions/1739297/ffmpeg-and-creating-a-single-image-made-up-of-a-grid-of-thumbnails-from-a-video – Gantendo Apr 04 '23 at 18:24
