bill gates Posted November 25, 2009 Share Posted November 25, 2009 I am looking for any script that might generate a thumbnail from a youtube video, but not just a simple frame like the img.youtube.com/vi/.../default.jpg BUT INCLUDING the youtube command bar and big round play image in the image. Basically a thumbnail of the WHOLE object just as it is rendered on the page, not just a thumb of a frame... Does anyone have anything like this? I have searched google but could not find anything Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/182956-anyone-have-a-script-that-will-generate-a-youtube-like-thumbnail/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
keldorn Posted November 26, 2009 Share Posted November 26, 2009 Those things dont exist on the image, there overlayed on the image by CSS, or is a object in the flash player. You could do that yourself also, (The css anyways) or Get Asido, then grab the thumbnail from youtube, and overlay a tranparent png image on top of the thumbnail that looks like what you describe, Asido::copy($image,'/path/to/image/', 0, 0); My avatar is actually 2 image combined over with Asido with that command. The black box around it, was transparent and overlayed on the avatar.

Jnerocorp Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I am working on this for you: http://JneroCorp.com/youtube.php right now you have to put the link in like this: but im adding in validation so you can place links like this: " &feature=rec-LGOUT-exp_fresh+div-HM" and it will fix it if the link is like that -John Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/182956-anyone-have-a-script-that-will-generate-a-youtube-like-thumbnail/#findComment-966789 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jnerocorp Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Ok I updated the script so it grabs all 4 thumbnails and you can do different youtube links and if they are valid links then the images will show. -John Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/182956-anyone-have-a-script-that-will-generate-a-youtube-like-thumbnail/#findComment-966794 Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill gates Posted November 28, 2009 Author Share Posted November 28, 2009 I think you should put the "play" white/semitransparent gif (the play arrow) in the generated thumbnail...
