    Perfect, it all works now.<br>
    <br>
    I did notice s small bug related to UTF8 I guess.<br>
    <br>
    If video file name contains special characters like "Æ, Ø, Å", no
    preview will be generated. But I guess that would be bad practice to
    do anyway.<br>
    <br>
    Thanks a lot for helping me out!<br>

      Hi Jacob,<br>
      <br>
      You first need to run <br>
      <br>
      $ bin/epadmin redo_mime_type <br>
      <br>
      then <br>
      $ bin/epadmin redo_thumbnails<br>
      <br>
      Technical details : document.media_video_codec in the database
      needs to be valid before thumbnails are generated. This field is
      populated after a video file is upload when ffmpeg is installed,
      otherwise you need to redo_mime_type to back-fill those videos
      uploaded before installing ffmpeg. <br>

                3.3.12?<br>
                <br>
                I use coversheets and the youtube-dl packages from the
                Baza, which generates a thumbnail preview from PDFs or
                imports a screenshot from the video on Youtube and adds
                a link to the video.<br>
                <br>
                But if I upload actual image files or videos, the file
                is depicted with and icon and no preview link is
                available.<br>
                <br>
                I found some guides/plugins that promise to do this, but
                they all seem to be targeting different, older versions
                of EPrints, and I haven't been able to find recent ones.<br>
                <br>
                Furthermore I would think that this was basic
                functionality that any user would want, so I don't why
                this functionality shouldn't be available "out the box".<br>
                <br>
                This is the most recent document i have been able to
                find, but my "eprints_render" does not include the
                lines, that are mentioned in the guide, so I suspect is
                is targeting an older version.<br>

                <br>
                I also looked at PreviewPlus (only for older versions)
                and a few other links<br>
                <br>
                Maybe my setup is wrong, but "epadmin test" shows
                "everything seems OK", so any help or pointers would be
                greatly appreciated. Where should I look, and how should
