Video Support

Eyeris v1.1+ includes full video support — playback, thumbnails, and AI tagging.

Supported Formats

.mp4, .mkv, .avi, .mov, .wmv, .webm, .m4v

How Videos are Handled

  • Discovery: Detected during NAS scans and stored alongside images in the same database
  • Thumbnails: ffmpeg extracts a representative frame used as the gallery thumbnail
  • Metadata: ffprobe reads dimensions and creation dates
  • Playback: Inline HTML5 video player with seek/scrub; full-screen on mobile

Browsing Videos

Videos are filtered out of the main gallery by default to keep it clean. Use the Videos tab in the sidebar to see all videos.

The Untagged view shows both untagged images and untagged videos together, so you can see everything that still needs attention in one place.

Tagging Videos

Videos can be tagged manually in the UI just like images.

For automated AI tagging, use the A-Eye integration on the Dashboard:

  1. Go to Settings → Integrations and enter your A-Eye URL
  2. On the Dashboard, click Send to A-Eye
  3. Eyeris sends the video's thumbnail frame to A-Eye for image-based analysis
  4. Tags are auto-imported within 5 minutes

See AI Integration (A-EYE) for full setup instructions.
