Description

TagStudio currently only supports thumbnails for a limited set of tar based files, namely .tar, .cbt and .tgz.

The tarfile module used to extract the thumbnail also supports LZMA, BZip2 and Zstandard compressed tarballs, their extensions just need to be registered with the renderer.

Solution

Register the extensions with the archive thumbnail renderer
