Regenerate thumbnails

We increased the quality of thumbnails from 70px to 95px in Funkwhale 1.0. This action removes visual artifacts that affect lower quality thumbnails. You can run the funkwhale-manage command line interface to generate new thumbnails. If you want to keep thumbnails at their original quality, add THUMBNAIL_JPEG_RESIZE_QUALITY=70 to your .env file.

Note

If you’re using S3 storage, the __sized__ folder is located in your S3 bucket.

To generate new thumbnails:

  1. SSH into your Funkwhale server.

  2. Navigate to your Funkwhale directory.

    cd  /srv/funkwhale
    
  3. Delete the __sized__ directory inside your MEDIA_ROOT directory. By default this is /srv/funkwhale/data/media. This directory contains the current thumbnails.

    rm -r __sized__/
    
  4. Run the funkwhale-manage command line interface to regenerate the thumbnails.

    venv/bin/funkwhale-manage fw media generate-thumbnails
    
  1. SSH into your Funkwhale server.

  2. Navigate to your Funkwhale directory.

    cd  /srv/funkwhale/
    
  3. Delete the __sized__ directory inside your MEDIA_ROOT directory. By default this is /srv/funkwhale/data/media. This directory contains the current thumbnails.

    rm -r data/media/__sized__/
    
  4. Run the funkwhale-manage command line interface to regenerate the thumbnails.

    sudo docker compose run --rm api funkwhale-manage fw media generate-thumbnails
    

The script generates new thumbnails for all album and artist art on your pod.
