Is there anyway to use the thumbnail generation programmatically?

    Hello,

    I’m trying to generate a thumbnail for a video which is uploaded from the frontend, however it seems I’m only able to generate thumbnails from the backend.
    Just a way to automatically generate a thumbnail for a video when after uploading it would be great, but I can’t find any feature like that.

    Is there any way to generate the thumbnail programmatically, maybe by calling a function with the postID of the video?

    Thank you.

    You can if you have FFMPEG installed on your server. Otherwise the plugin uses your browser’s video decoding capabilities to make thumbnails, and I’ve never managed to build a way to automatically generate thumbnails that way.
