Yeah, I think the conversion is where it gets messed up. It seems like webp images bypass this conversion step. It is a relatively new format though, so it won't work in old browsers.

Do you see the MP4 playing? I uploaded a plain gif, didn't know it was converted until he posted the screenshot with the error.

I do not. "No video with supported format and MIME type found." On Firefox 102.11.0esr, Gentoo 64 bit.

If I right-click, inspect element, and paste the URL into a new tab, it does work though. 🤔

While setting up pict-rs on my cluster I noticed a pict-rs environment variable to convert all uploaded pictures to the png format. That may also be activated. I guess that makes de-duplication way easier.
