Tim Donohue updated DS-883:
---------------------------
Affects Version/s: 1.8.0
1.7.2
Fix Version/s: post-1.8.0
Issue Type: Improvement (was: Bug)
This issue was discussed in the Developers Meeting today.
We decided that this actually seems like an Improvement/Feature Request rather
than a bug. We think there may be a small misunderstanding around the purpose
of the 'primary bitstream', which traditionally was only used to designate the
primary file in an HTML webpage/site.
However, this does seem to be a good feature request. Essentially, several of
us like the idea of being able to designate which image is displayed as the
main thumbnail. So I've switched this from a "Bug" to an "Improvement". We've
also scheduled this for post-1.8.0. It may be possible that the new ability to
reorder bitstreams in 1.8.0 will help with this issue.
The full discussion that took place is copied below:

Artifact preview thumbnail in browse screens does not display primary bitstream
- DuraSpace JIRA
[20:08] <scottatm> What is the desired effect?
[20:09] <tdonohue> I think this is a misunderstanding of what the "primary
bitstream" is used for. It's only used for HTML content. I think this issue is
implying it should also be used to determine which thumbnail is displayed (if
there are multiple image files attached to an Item)?
[20:09] <tdonohue> or, at least, that's what I think it's saying (I could be
reading it wrong though)
[20:09] <robint> Thats my reading of it
[20:10] <aschweer> tdonohue: that's how I read it too
[20:10] <tdonohue> so, do we mark this as "not a bug"? Or is this a new feature
(to wait until after 1.8.0)?
[20:10] <aschweer> I would actually probably expect the same behaviour as the
reporter
[20:10] <KevinVdV> Well t.b.h. I don't know how the browse thumbnails work but
there is now an option to reorder files so this could solve his issue
[20:10] <robint> Could we make clearer the meaning of "primary bitstream" ?
[20:11] <aschweer> robint: I could imagine, if an item has many images, that
people want to control which thumbnail shows up in the browse
[20:12] <aschweer> which may not be addressed by making it the primary
bitstream anyway
[20:12] <tdonohue> I'd think I'd lean towards reclassifying this as a "new
feature request" for post-1.8.0. I think aschweer is right that there's a new
feature in here -- whether or not the 'primary bitstream' is the way to do this
may need investigation
[20:12] <robint> aschweer: Fair point. Does anyone know how media-filter
decides which image to thumbnail ?
[20:13] <scottatm> media filters creates thumbnails for all bitstreams that it
can.
[20:13] <scottatm> It dosn't just pick one for an item, an item may have
several thumbnails.
[20:13] <aschweer> the browse index then apparently pick one, not sure based on
what
[20:14] <tdonohue> anyone want to "claim" Ds-883 and investigate it after 1.8.0?
[20:15] <tdonohue> I'll take that as a no. Ds-883 summary: we can just schedule
this for post-1.8.0 then & change into a feature request, and hope to find
someone to investigate further
[20:16] <robint> Worth recording on it that KeveVdV's bitstream order change
may fix it

> Key: DS-883
> URL: https://jira.duraspace.org/browse/DS-883
> Project: DSpace
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: XMLUI
> Affects Versions: 1.5.2, 1.6.0, 1.6.1, 1.6.2, 1.7.0, 1.7.1, 1.7.2, 1.8.0
> Reporter: Samuel Ottenhoff
> Priority: Major
> Fix For: post-1.8.0
>
>
> Steps to replicate in XMLUI:
> 1) Add new DSpace item with one image
> 2) Run filter-media and update your browse index
> 3) View a browse index like Recent Submissions; your thumbnail now displays
> in the the browse
> 4) Go to the item
> 5) Edit this item
> 6) Item Bitstreams
> 7) Upload a new bitstream
> 8) Upload new image -> save
> 9) Click on the new image name
> 10) Make it the Primary bitstream -> Save
> 11) Run filter-media again, update the browse index
> Look at a browse index like Recent Submissions, notice that the primary
> bitstream flag is not being respected. The old image is still the thumbnail
> for this item.
