never_rain Posted April 9, 2007 Share Posted April 9, 2007 I have developed an application where the visitors of site come and upload movie clips of MPG, MPEG, MOV, RAR format get uploaded. I would like to create a functionality so that whenever a movie is uploaded, automatically a thumbnail of that movie should be created. the thumbnail should be extracted from any frame from within that particular movie clip. the best example is youtube movie uploads. I am still unable to find any solution and did lot of search about it on internet. Please let me know the technique if any one has done this before or any link to a resource where I can search and get an idea how this is done. Thanks in advance for your help.

Getting the files up to your Website? If your Website is hosted the WebHost has to give you FTP rights and you use a FTP client to upload. Since this is an PHP forum and your talking abour creating a player, I assume your talking about an embedded player which requires the end user to have codec/players on their machine. 99% of media on the Internet these days is played via a Flash Player i.e. .flv and mp4 files. i personally don't like realplayer and I don't really know how many people have the vlc client. BUt there is full documents on vlc and videoLan Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/46233-thumbnail-of-a-video-file/#findComment-957343 Share on other sites More sharing options...
