Thumbnailer - creates automaticly thumbnails from videos and tv recordings (2 Viewers)

[kznostra]

Can someone explain how i can make that plugin to work? I put folder "Thumbnailer - tv" to "plugins" folder in MediaPortal and nothing is happens.

- Can you post a screenshot of your screenshoter config?
- Did you choosen the folder wheres the recordings are stored from tv-server?
- Have you saved the plugin all the other stuff in your mediaportal\plugins\process folder?

- DO not nake a folder in the procerss folder, do the plugin directly in it.

thx

Hi,
I find this plugin to be very useful. However, I realize that it cannot make thumbnails for mpeg files.
Is it true? is that a solution for this?

What are this for file?

On my system its no problem to get thumbs from MPGEG2, DIvX, MPEG4 etc...

What for a codec are needed?

Sorry, I was not specific. It is for movies which I took with my camera. they are .mpg files (mpeg-1). In this same folder (to which I directed thombnailer) I had .avi file for them I got the thumbnail, but not for the .mpg files.

ich hab da noch ein paar Verbesserungen.

gibt man nur ein Laufwerk ohne Verzeichniss an (zb "d:\") scheint das Programm nicht zu funktionieren.

Da viele Serien den Vorspann erst nach einer zeitlich stark varrierenden Einleitung haben habe ich die "Thumbnail-bau-Zeit" auf 10min gestellt um keine Vorspannbilder zu erwischen. Bei Musicvideos zb funktioniert diese Angabe nicht da diese deutlich kürzer als 10min sind. Eine einstellbare Alternativzeit währe gut wenn das Video kürzer als die "PrimaryZeit" ist.
Oder man gibt die Zeit der Erfassung nicht in Sekunden an, sondern in einem Bruch. Z.B. erzeugung bei 1/3 des Videos.

I've just started using the Thumbnailer process plugin for my h.264 TV recordings but am getting a strange grey background on most of them althought the occassional one works fine.

Any help appreciated?

wrong aspect ratio

Hi,

thanks for great plugin!

I have problem with wrong aspect ratio of thumbnails. All thumbnails are in 4:3 format. I haven't found any settings in plugin for aspect ratio ...
Did I miss something?

Thanks for help.

love this plugin, but what happened to the setting that allowed you to set an initial delay? I'm noticed a couple of times that its taking a long time to check through my video files at startup...

can we force thumbnails to be created for all files in the specified folders? It seems like the plugin is not functioning for me: I duplicated a video to simulate a file change (addition), but no thumbnail is created.
