How to clear and rebuild video thumbnails?
« on: November 02, 2007, 06:24:24 pm »
I had to restore a backup the other day, and ALL the thumbnails for my music videos and series dissappeared.
Under the rebuild all my thumbails got grabbed in a vertical super widescreen aspect ratio. Don't look nice at all.
Belive I had some settings wrong in ffdshow at the time.

The videos all play in the right aspect ratio now. Tested a "Grab picture from video" or what ever it's called, and that made a normail thumbnail.
I belive the thumbnailing will work correctly the next time, but how can I cleare them all and start over?

And one more. Why are there no option for storing this thumbnails on disk or in the library backup?

select files then update library from tags should rebuild the thumbs for you.

can't answer the second question, sorry.

Aaaah. That did the trick!
I thought I allready tried that one. Must have still had some nuts settings in ffdshow by the time I tested it...
