How to get automatic Screenshot like in Youtube

Posted: Mar 24, 2010

Hi there,

yesterday installed Flowplayer and changed colours etc, all working well. But now Iīm searching for a solution how to get a "Automatic Screenshot" before the start...

What I mean is like youtube, if autostart=false I donīt want to have a black screen, I want to have an screenshot of the Video.

Here in the forum I didnīt find anything or only older ideas which wonīt work.

Anybody an Idea?
Thanks,
Hansy

Hi,

I'm also new to the forum. I'm also interested in how I can grab a random Screenshot from the first seconds of a video. Is it possible to select a timeframe where the player can get (maybe at random?) a screenshot from the featured video?

Best regards.

This is something that's generally done server side via a ffmpeg script or command.

You could also do it manually using the playlist. While this method requires a little more work the results are often better.
