My Nextcloud instance is in version 23.0.5 and I still have the problem ... dozens of notifications when videos are played through a public link (shared with an email).

[szaimen]

Yes, notifications are not fixed with this...

Cc @nickvergessen on ideas how we can implement a fix for notifications, too

[nickvergessen]

Opt out of getting notifications for this type of activities.
Other than that: nextcloud/files_downloadactivity#47

[Jerome-Herbinet]

This might be an opportunity to distinguish between two actions, which would be visible in notifications (push and email) and activities: When someone plays the video (or sound file) or downloads the file. These are two different things.
So, depending on the context (and therefore on the link that was clicked) we would have :

john.doe@mydomain.com downloaded hello-world.mp4
john.doe@mydomain.com played hello-world.mp4

john.doe@mydomain.com downloaded sound.mp3
john.doe@mydomain.com played sound.mp3

Do you want me to open another issue ?

All right. Do you think it would be possible to get some kind of activity merging like it exists for the acticity stream?
