MIGXDB - Media Source not working in "web" context, only "mgr".

I have an image field in MIGXdb that uses a media source with the ID 17. The field works perfectly in the manager, but just outputs the filename (without the full URL) in the "web" context. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Here is my configuration for that field:

{
          "MIGX_id":210,
          "field":"image",
          "caption":"Image",
          "description":"",
          "description_is_code":"0",
          "inputTV":"",
          "inputTVtype":"image",
          "validation":"",
          "configs":"",
          "restrictive_condition":"",
          "display":"",
          "sourceFrom":"config",
          "sources":[
            {
              "MIGX_id":1,
              "context":"web",
              "sourceid":17
            },
            {
              "MIGX_id":2,
              "context":"mgr",
              "sourceid":17
            }
          ],
          "inputOptionValues":"",
          "default":"",
          "useDefaultIfEmpty":"0",
          "pos":7
        },

My call:

[[migxLoopCollection?
	&classname=`Endorsement`
	&packageName=`endorsements`
	&prefix=`modx_custom_`
	&tpl=`tpl.Endorsement`
	&where=`{"published":"1"}`
	&sortConfig=`[{"sortby":"pos","sortdir":"ASC"}]`
]]

My tpl:

<li>
	<article class="c-endorsement">
		<div class="c-endorsement__image">
			<img src="[[+image]]" alt="[[+name]]" />
		</div>
		<header class="c-endorsement__header">
			<h5 class="c-endorsement__name">[[+name]]</h5>
			<p class="c-endorsement__meta">[[+location]]</p>
		</header>
		<div class="c-endorsement__text">[[+endorsement]]</div>
	</article>
</li>

migxLoopCollection doesn't know about the used mediasource.

But you can create a snippet 'add_mediasourcepath':
```
$output = str_replace('./','',$input);
if ($mediasource = $modx->getObject('sources.modMediaSource',$options)){
    $output = $mediasource->prepareOutputUrl($output);
}
return '/' . $output;
```
and use it as an output-filter:
```
[[+image:add_mediasourcepath=`17`]]
```

you can buy me a beer, if you like MIGX
