Hello Peter, The various commandline flags you can pass to the "filter-media" command are documented at: https://wiki.duraspace.org/display/DSDOC6x/Mediafilters+for+Transforming+DSpace+Content#MediafiltersforTransformingDSpaceContent-Executing(viaCommandLine )
The "-f" flag is simply "force create" mode, which means that *every* thumbnail is recreated (even if it already exists). Without that flag, DSpace only creates thumbnails for images that do not yet have them created. However, the thumbnail that is created should be identical whether you have -f or not. So, my best guess is that having multiple plugins enabled for thumbnails must have caused those oddities -- some thumbnails may have been created by one plugin, and others by the other. - Tim On Sun, Oct 14, 2018 at 3:33 PM admin <[email protected]> wrote: > Ok I had enabled different plugins for the same purpose (like PDFBox JPEG > Thumbnail and ImageMagick PDF Thumbnail Generator) that probably caused > overlapping. > Anyways, I'm still curious why the same commands but with different > parameters give different results. > > W dniu niedziela, 14 października 2018 10:14:32 UTC+1 użytkownik admin > napisał: >> >> Hi, >> >> I noticed that when I run filter-media (no params) command via cron the >> thumbnails look differently to those generated manually via filter-media -f. >> I did a test and: >> 1.
