Thumbnails for video files - HELP. Why do some files have no thumbnails, only displaying the VLC cone icon. Is there any way to get it to show a thumbnail. Also is there any way to change thumbnails for videos, to show another still from the movie not just the one from where the video begins
To change the thumbnail picture use Tageditor, all you do is take a screenshot of the picture you want using VLC>open Tageditor drag the video file to the app window>drag screenshot file to the cover section of the app>click save. Video how to install and use.

Docker Acquires Mutagen
Note for the confused (maybe just me?), this is not related to python-mutagen[0], the metadata library.

Resonance: Intuitive Music Player
I actually originally wrote Resonance in entirely in python when I was first learning how to make gtk4 / libadwaita applications. This first version used the mutagen tagging library for importing tags, which was written for the quodlibet player. Eventually, through the course of developing Resonance, I ran into noticeable latency issues with a sizable enough library. This was due (I think maybe due to this?) to how gdk pixbuf loading worked within PyGObject. This was especially an issue with the main album grid flowbox. (Loading a ton of album covers made it super laggy)

Looking for a music library app that can handle multiple artist/genre tags like Quod Libet does
It looks like Quod Libet, ExFalso (it's tag editor) and Mutagen its tagging library are the only ones that really do support actual multiple tags, both writing (Mutagen and ExFalso) and reading/playing/acting as a music library with Quod Libet…
