How to set thumbnail for videos?
« on: March 19, 2004, 11:16:23 am »

I saw somewhere that it was possible to pause a video at the point where you wanted that screenshot to serve as teh thumbnail for a video in MC.  I cannot find the thread, nor can I figure out how do do this.  Does anyone know?

Thanks

Pause the video, then right click on the display and select 'Use screengrab for thumbnail.'

That's what I thought, but it's not an option for DVD Playback.

Matt, can this be changed?

We don't have access on all video, so if the option isn't there or doesn't work, that's why.

Thanks Jim.  Sounds like it can't be changed either ?

This function works only on XP.  Are you using XP?
