jaikar Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 Hi, i want to upload a video file (mpeg, mpg, wmv) and wanted to display the first frame of the video as a thumbnail. so video will start to play in a enlarged mode when user clicks the thumbnail view of the video like the google videos. is it possible in php to capture the first frame of the video file and save it as a thumbnail picture ?. or do i need to capture through other software and upload the picture and the movie file ?... if there is a possible way to capture the first frame in php that would be better. Any suggestions ?? anyone please advice !! Thanks in Advance ~J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonMariner Posted February 12, 2007 Share Posted February 12, 2007 I have yet to see video frame carpture but until someone post details to a script that can (which I am sure will be in a couple of minutes) I would go with your second option.
