Originally created by @Ynng on GitHub (Apr 6, 2024).

The bug

Immich creates live photo video assets for motion photos found in external libraries.

These video assets are marked as offline incorrectly after every full scan.

This happens as the handleQueueAssetRefresh function determines a file to be offline if they do not exist in the import path of the library.

The video assets sit in /encoded-video instead of the external library, and are thus marked offline.

A simple fix might be creating a new mechanism specific to live photos to keep these files "online".

Reproduction steps

1. Add an external library
2. Add a MVIMG or MP format android motion photo to the external library. Only the jpg, not the mp4
3. On the admin settings page, "scan new library files" for the external library
4. At this point, the live photo should show up in your library and function correctly.
5. Revisit the admin settings page, click "force re-scan all library files"
6. In a database GUI, observe how all video assets in the library with original path in `upload/encoded-video` be marked offline
