Am I doing something wrong or does TrueNAS/Nextcloud not support HEIC images?

I’m not super knowledgable on this topic so unsure how to fix (if possible to fix)

Thanks

    Convert them to another format?

    Like find "path" -name "*.ext" | xargs mogrify -format jpg or so.

    I don’t even know what a heic image is.

    Edit: It’s a apple picture format from their cameras.

      No.

      It’s a container for image data developed by Moving Picture Experts Group (“MPEG”, try to guess what else they have created).

      While there are some compatibility issues between vendors HEIC still offers a greater set of features as compared to fx JFIF (you probably know it as JPEG/JPG.

      Apple was one of the early adopters (2017) and (as usual?) the industry has followed. Microsoft wants money for the codec in Windows and that’s probably one of the reasons why it’s not commonly used…yet.
