![]() Two major changes here: 1. When you attach a video to your message, you see a thumbnail of its first frame in the composition area, instead of a generic file icon 2. When you reply to a message with a video in it, your message will include a thumbnail of that video (we'll also generate thumbnails for video quotes if not provided already) I also made a change to our quote-loading algorithm, since I noticed that our previous approach had some performance issues now that we support video. Where before, we privileged our ability to make local thumbnails at a higher quality, now we defer to any thumbnail we have saved on the quote. So the algorithm for preparing a quote for display is now: 1. Load thumbnail from disk 2. Check to see if quoted message is in memory already. If it is, and we weren't able to load a thumbnail already, generate it from quoted message. 3. If there is an attachment in quote, and we couldn't find message in memory, and the attachment contentType is either image or video, we will go to the database to find the referenced message and create a thumbnail from it. Bonus bug-fix: The scroll down button in the bottom right of the conversation no longer has an outline when you click it. |
