For reference, the iOS Nextcloud app does seem to support live photos.
Already works in the viewer app: nextcloud/viewer#80
Maybe i have something configured incorrectly, but when i click on a photo that has a live video component, it is not played when viewing it through the viewer. Or perhaps Memories has made some kind of change to the photo/video files which has interfered with how Photos presents them.
Thanks for testing! Maybe it used to work, but seems like it doesn't now. @skjnldsv any ideas?
It does work on the iOS Nextcloud app tho ;)

Please share an example of what you think a live photo is :)
Do you have two files or one?
Two files for iOS live photos
iOSLivePhoto.zip
As I expected. We already support this. If both files are next to each others, the video will start and once played display the image as a static poster of the video.
Tested with your files, and it works (the mov support on the other hand is not universal depending on your OS and browser)
But I'll keep it opened, because I think there are room for improvements in the photos UI to make it more visible that a file is a live photo.
But opening one works and is supported by nc :)
Hello under my server the files are not shown as one but two under Photos all media the live photos files should be as one

yes and no. Unfortunately some users want to actually see both, because this feature is also used regardless of live photos. Some users are creating posters for their videos and having the same file names is the way to go.
Nonetheless, for Photos, it might make sense to indeed hide the picture.

How do we make the files "next to each other". The files on my server are a few photos apart. I don't see a way to order by file name?

They need to have the same file name
image1.jpg and image1.mp4
I believe the files I provided were named the same. I'll chalk it up to my browser as you indicated here:

It does work on memories though but maybe that's because the mov is being transcoded.
My files are showing the same one is .jpg and other is .mov and under the photos app they are not showing together
