The bug
Uploading .MOV files will throw a 400undefined error notification. File uploaded from Windows 11 Microsoft Edge and Chrome. Although interestingly enough, if I copied the file from PC to my Android phone and uploaded it, it'll work with Android Samsung Internet browser. In logs, no matter both PC and mobile Adroid - this error is on the server logs:

Additional information
Unsupported file type .MOV file MIME type video/mov. This seems to have taken the file extension and place as video/>fileextension<. It should be "video/quicktime" as MIME type. File was extracted from iPhone to PC using Windows Photos.
@w00tlarr commented on GitHub (Mar 1, 2023):
Forgot to mention - if I renamed the file with a .qt extension - it works without errors. Also my *.MOV filename is all in caps if it matters.
@alextran1502 commented on GitHub (Mar 1, 2023):
Is the file something you can share with us for troubleshooting?
@w00tlarr commented on GitHub (Mar 1, 2023):
LOL! interestingly I can't upload it to github as .MOV so I've zipped it up.
ITFZ2686.zip
It does play OK with Media Player Classic in Windows 11.
@michelheusschen commented on GitHub (Mar 1, 2023):
Might be something funky with MOV as container format going on, possibly in combination with the H.265 codec. When I rename this file to just .mp4 it gets uploaded via web without issues and on the server it corrects the MIME type to
video/quicktime.Edit: it doesn't correct to
video/quicktime, but saves it asvideo/mp4. Playback is then possible because the file gets transcoded.@jrasm91 commented on GitHub (Mar 1, 2023):
At the end of the day you can only upload files that pass our content type check.
video/movwill be denied with a bad request, whilevideo/quicktimewill be accepted. The content type is determined by the client. In chrome (for linux), uploading to the web, the file works perfectly, and chrome sends the expected mimetype ofvideo/quicktime.The question or "issue", more generally, is "why does x send
video/movinstead ofvideo/quicktime" and the answer comes down to different clients have different ways of inferring (guessing) the correct content type and it looks like not all of them are getting this one right.Looks like there is even an exif tag for mime type and it is set to
video/quicktime:@samip5 commented on GitHub (Mar 1, 2023):
Hmm, I wonder if there actually is some MOV's that are actually non-quicktime videos according to exiftool..
I think we should be accepting video/mov as well.
@jrasm91 commented on GitHub (Mar 1, 2023):
Yeah, there's a few different ways to address the issue, which I did not give an opinion about, but that's what is happening and why it is happening 😄
@w00tlarr commented on GitHub (Mar 2, 2023):
LOL! I must check my ADHD on these things... Googled high and low and found this gem:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/1201945/how-is-mime-type-of-an-uploaded-file-determined-by-browser
So - I did what it said and is indeed very OS specific. In Windows, need to update Registry at:
Computer \ HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT \ .mov
The current key I have for Content Type is video/mov. Changed it to video/quicktime and reloaded the video at my Immich web instance and it worked!
So it is very OS/client specific then. May have to consider to allow video/mov or check with exiftool during upload.
Loving Immich so far! Thanks for a great app.
@jrasm91 commented on GitHub (Mar 2, 2023):
I think accepting video/mov would be an acceptable solution.
@w00tlarr commented on GitHub (Mar 11, 2023):
Ouch - I ran into the same for .AVI files which is video/avi instead of video/x-msvideo.
Any advice for Windows if need to install apps or codecs that will update the registry to its proper mimetype?
I guess I have to go thru the registry to set it up manually then. At least on the videos and images that I care to upload to Immich.

We can probably add support this this one as well. Can you open a separate issue to track it?

Support for MOV should be implemented as of #2045, eg included in Immich version 1.52.0.
