I'm talking about the Dropbox website as well as the Dropbox app.
I only see thumbnails with the default images of an MP3 and MP3 file but not a thumbnail with image of the contents of the file.
Compare this with jpg and other image files. Thumbnails of jpg files show an image of its content. So, I also would like this with MP3, MP4 and other audio and video files.
Google Drive also shows thumbnails with the default images for MP3 and MP4 files but OneDrive from Microsoft shows thumbnails with images just like jpg files.

Dropbox Community ModeratorThanks for the updates, Ronald! I’ve checked this on my end as well, and video files seem to have a thumbnail when I view them via the Dropbox website.
Did you check this via a different browser, and you see the same thing? Also, on your desktop app, are these files offline or available online-only?
As for your .mp3 files, since they usually don’t have any images attached to them, can you clarify if you’ve edited them and added your own photos by using another software?
