Steps to reproduce

  1. Upload a video file in any supported format to your choosen media folder
  2. Open the iOS app and go to the media tab
  3. Select "Show all" or "Show videos only"

Expected behaviour

Even if there is no thumbnail creation possible for the given video format, you should at least see empty preview placeholders for each video file like it was in previous versions of the mobile app and is still available in the browser web ui like so:

Actual behaviour

Video files in any supported format seems to be completely ignored in the media tab. Sometimes, when refreshing/reloading or clearing the cache, the thumbnail placeholders flicker for a few milliseconds and then disappear again.

Reasoning or why should it be changed/implemented?

It was working in previous versions and is mandatory if you want to manage all your media files with Nextcloud.
