USB file names and thumbnails

Drew180

Hi, I'm using Skybox 2.01 on the Quest 3. I have a lot of SBS 180 videos that I've shot over the years. Too many to fit on the internal storage. I'm trying to use a USB thumbdrive to store them but running into a couple problems:

The file name formatting on USB isn't working for me. I rename the files to end in LR180 but they often come up wrong.
The thumbnails need to be regenerated each time I browse the USB drive, which takes a long time. Is there a way to save the thumbnails onto the drive or read thumbnails that I've already saved?

Thanks

Lucy

Hello, thanks for your feedback.

Please include the exact keyword "LR_180"(an underscore is needed) in the file name or folder name, then SKYBOX will automatically identify the VR format based on the keyword.

About the second issue, I'm sorry there's no way to save the thumbnails onto the USB drive. After restarting SKYBOX or re-plugging your USB drive, SKYBOX will directly display the thumbnails without having to regenerate them one by one.

What's more, you can go to SKYBOX's "Global Settings" and turn off "Show Thumbnails".

Thanks, renaming the files with LR_180 fixed the issue with detecting the format.

Any solutions to the thumbnail issue would be greatly appreciated! I want to use the thumbnails to see what the files are, but they currently take about 10-15 minutes to generate, and they have to regenerate from scratch any time I plug in my USB drive. The drive has 150+ videos on it.

I ran Skybox again today, and it lost the format of many of the videos on the USB drive, despite having LR_180 in the name. Here is an example: 20210325-121447_VID_0216_5K_LR_180.mp4
