Description Herbert 2026-01-05 20:29:37 UTC
SUMMARY
In the Camera view of my Fedora 43 KDE Plasma desktop the JPGs of my Canon G7x do not show thumbnails. On a Fedora 43 Workstation (same Fedora base but Gnome instead of KDE) the thumbnails are shown in Gnome in the Camera view with the same camera. Also, when I copy images from the camera view to another folder somewhere under home, then the thumbnails are visible there (but still not in the Camera view).

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Connect a camera
2. Open in File Explorer
3. Open a folder with JPG images

OBSERVED RESULT
Images are shown as standard image-icons, but not as thumbnails of the actual images.

EXPECTED RESULT
Images are shown as thumbnails of the actual images.

When starting Dolphin from Konsole and going to "camera:/" to show the camera content and then navigating to the images, the log output is:
