Public bug reported:
In Nautilus on Ubuntu 24.04, .mp3 files with embedded album art
correctly show their covers as thumbnails. However, .m4a files - despite
also having embedded artwork - do not show thumbnails at all.
This seems inconsistent, as .m4a is a widely supported format and the
cover art is confirmed to be embedded (checked with ffmpeg). The same
.m4a file displays correctly on Android and Windows.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Use an .m4a file with embedded cover art.
2. Place it in a folder and open it in Nautilus.
3. Thumbnail is missing, while a similar .mp3 shows the cover.
Expected:
Nautilus should display the cover image embedded in the .m4a file as a
thumbnail, just like it does for .mp3.
Tested on:
- Ubuntu 24.04
- Nautilus 46.2
Thank you!
