Videos: QuickTime files are ignored by the convert command

[mario-g98]

1. What is not working as documented?

When trying to transcode video files using the CLI command photoprism convert QuickTime videos get skipped.

2. How can we reproduce it?

Steps to reproduce the behavior:

1. Download this sample
2. Place it in Originals folder
3. Index it through the GUI
4. Run photoprism convert in terminal

3. What behavior do you expect?

The video should get transcoded, but instead it is skipped.

4. What could be the cause of your problem?

Maybe the CLI command is not configured properly?

5. Can you provide us with example files for testing, error logs, or screenshots?

After the command is finished, I go to the gallery and open the video. It then starts transcoding.

6. Which software versions do you use?

@mario-g98 @theresagresch As it turned out, the photoprism convert command only checked if the video codec is AVC, without also checking if the container is MP4 or has another format like MOV (QuickTime).

Transcoding should not be skipped because some browsers cannot play certain QuickTime AVC videos. My changes improve format checking so that the conversion command no longer skips QuickTime files. An updated development preview will be available for testing soon!
