[Plugin: Video Thumbnails] Full size images being placed instead of thumbnails? Help?

Hey there,

Glad my plugin could help. This is a really easy fix – just use the following code, and replace 300 with the width you’d like the image to be.

<?php if( ( $video_thumbnail = get_video_thumbnail() ) != null ) { echo "<img src='" . $video_thumbnail . "' width='300' />"; } ?>

If you’d like to get more advanced, you can check out TimThumb, a PHP script that can resize/crop images.

AWESOME! That worked! Thanks for your help!

I have been trying to figure this out, but I still get the huge thumb nails. I am confused perhaps where this goes

<?php if( ( $video_thumbnail = get_video_thumbnail() ) != null ) { echo "<img src='" . $video_thumbnail . "' width='300' />"; } ?>

I am assuming that would go in my functions page?

Im having the same issue as above getting large video thumbnails with the code provided.

<?php if( ( $video_thumbnail = get_video_thumbnail() ) != null ) { echo "<img src='" . $video_thumbnail . "' width='300' />"; } ?>

If you’re having trouble with the size of the images, try using TimThumb to resize them.

I tried to implement Timthumb but cant get both to work together.. I also used the https://www.binarymoon.co.uk/2009/10/timthumb-wordpress-mu/ for help on this manner but cant seem to make it work within the loop?
<?php if( ( $video_thumbnail = get_video_thumbnail() ) != null ) { echo "<img src='<?php bloginfo('template_directory'); ?>/timthumb/timthumb.php?src='" .$video_thumbnail&w=300&h=170&zc=1. "' />"; } ?>

Heres what im getting test site.

Thanks a bunch!

Try this

<?php if( ( $video_thumbnail = get_video_thumbnail() ) != null ) { echo "<img src='" . bloginfo('template_directory') . "/timthumb/timthumb.php?src=" . $video_thumbnail . "&w=300&h=170&zc=1' />"; } ?>

Nope, that just echo’d back the link?

<img src=”<?php bloginfo(‘template_directory’); ?>/timthumb.php?src=<?php video_thumbnail(); ?>&w=138&h=104&zc=1″ />

Try this , it work with me …
replace the value in “w=138&h=104” with the width and height you’d like the image to be.

Forgive my ignorance, to use TimThumb with Video Thumbnails do I have to click edit on the Video Thumbnails widget and change something in the widget code?

I would like Video Thumbnails to deliver the same sized thumbs every time, whether it’s a youtube video or a vimeo etc.

Thanks in advance.
