string ExtractorArgs = string.Format(" -itsoffset -5 -i \"{0}\" -vframes 1 -s 320x240 \"{1}\"", aVideoPath, aThumbPath);It's very curious why pilehave's thumbs are generated in My Videos but not in Recorded TV. Both should use same methods for generating thumbs... Would be interesting to know what the fallback is and why it succeeds.
As a side note, I have been looking into ffmpeg thumbnail creation few months ago (to replace outdated MTN). But I've no time for everything
Should be fairly simple in the code, replace mtn.exe with ffmpeg.exe and tweak the parameters sent to MTN to ffmpeg syntax.
