Twonky Forum

Please forgive me, I did a couple searches and if this topic has its' own thread somewhere I missed it....

Is it possible to give a video file a thumbnail that will be seen on a PS3? I'd like to install this software on my NAS, and I'm trying to find out if it can do this.

Thanks.

If it is an MP4 you can embed the thumbnail into the file along with other meta data (you can use mp3tag or itunes for this), and the video's thumbnail will be passed to the PS3, and visible in the XMB.

Does Twonky have anything comparable to the PS3 Media Server's video thumbnails ? It just takes a frame from about 10 seconds into the video, and uses it as a thumbnail. It is simple, and it makes it so people don't need to build their own thumbnails for every single video.

Nope.
I wish it did have the option (for files which don't have embedded thumbnails that is).

Are there any plans for this in a future version ?
