Some Media Not Displaying on the Main Screen
Sorry, my English is not very good, so the following translation is from AI.
First, thank you for developing Immich.
The issue I’m encountering is that "some media is not displaying on the main screen."
(Currently, I’ve only noticed this issue with videos.)
(This happens on both the web and mobile apps.)
(See Figure 1)
I’m absolutely certain that the videos have been successfully uploaded to Immich.
The reason is that when I tried re-uploading the problematic video, it showed a "duplicate item" message.
Additionally, I can view the video by using the button link.
(See Figures 2 and 3)
If I browse using the folder view, the media is still not visible.
(See Figure 4)
I’ve suspected it might be related to video encoding.
Here is the information for one of the videos (obtained from MediaInfo):
It appears to be an H.264 format video, which theoretically should display normally.

Can you open the video in the detail view, then edit the url to replace
/photos/
with /api/assets
and post the output here?
"visibility": "hidden",
Why
Yeah that's weird
Do you need the original video?
I can compress it for you
I thought it wasn't but I was wrong - this is the video part of a live photo
So, it's gotten linked to that photo and that's why this one is hidden
Can I know which photo it belongs to?
Not easily afaik

Try
WHERE livePhotoVideoId
After checking, I found that the livePhotoVideoId for this video is empty.
Does this mean the original photo is lost?
No, that field is empty on the video, on the photo it has the ID of the video in it
Oh, I Find it
Thank you
