| We can display additional information under the thumbnails on hover, if __exiftool__ is deployed. It's not a mandatory component, but if needed, on Linux can install it from the apps repository, on Windows, download the binary from [https://exiftool.org/|https://exiftool.org/], drop it into the GraphicsMagick binary's parent folder. On Mac OS, need to download and install from the __dmg__ package. |
| We can display additional information under the thumbnails, and potentially all image metadata in the [Quickview|quick Preview] perspective, if __exiftool__ is deployed. It's not a mandatory component, Preview works fine without.\\ |
| On Linux can install it from the official apt, yum, dnf, etc. repository. |
| On newer versions of Windows, the original Phil Harvey build may not work, in that case need to use the alternate build\\ |

| To enable __both images/documents and videos preview__, need to add one instance of the Preview config for each with the appropriate preset, using the top right corner __Add Config__ button.\\ |
| \\ |
| !Config parameters explained:\\ |
| __Caution : Changing these fields needs extreme caution as invalid arguments could result in data loss ! __\\ |
| \\ |
| ;Conversion utility presets:as mentioned above, to choose a conversion preset for images, videos based on the available utility and OS platform |
| ;Supported file extensions:the file extensions we'll generate thumbnails for. For those unsupported or not listed, we'll render the default icons |
| ;Command Line:the commands the Preview Scanner issues to call the conversion utility. |
| ;Working Directory:the parent directory path of the conversion utility package's main binary |
| ;Environment Variables:some of the conversion tools may read additional parameters from the shell environment these run within, such can be forced here |
| ;Frames:only for video preview, this sets the number of slides we generate |
| ;Info command line:only for video preview, this sets the command to query the video length. the returned value is divided internally by the Frames value to generate the position of the slide |
| ;Get image EXIF info:only used with exiftool, the command to query image files' metadata |
| ;Set image EXIF info:only used with exiftool, the command to update image files' metadata |
| ;Scan subdirectories of directories in below list:toggles recursive scan of the data directories |
| ;Delete thumbnails for files that no longer exist:toggles automatic cleanup of the Previews thumbnail database. May need to turn off in case the VFS backend is unstable. |
| ;Scan interval in minutes:the frequency of the Preview Scanner's scheduler. The more aggressive, the quicker new files are detected at the cost of higher the CPU load |
| ;Threads:multithreaded scanner, needs to be set 2x the number of CPU cores |
| ;Timeout:timeout of a scanner thread, if reached, the failing file will also be blacklisted |
| ;Previews Path:the location of the Preview thumbnails database, by default the CrushFTP10 installation directory. Need to relocate to a separate drive if the users' VFS directory structure is large |
| \\ |
| !Troubleshooting:\\ |
| Issues with Preview can be traced in the main server log, the __Log__ tab reveals a filtered stream on Preview specific activity.\\ |
