Semi-manual thumbnail creation

Thumbnail creation (or better download) works like a charm in most cases, when it comes to movies or tv-shows.

Obiviously this can't be the case for music videos, tv recordings (selfmade) etc. In most cases, the default thumbnail showing a snapshot from the start of the file the result isn't really great.

 

To get better thumbs, I play the specific video, pause it where I want and take a screenshot, saving it to a file which I then upload to as primary picture to the specific item.

 

It would be great to have a menu item allowing to save a currently paused frame as thumb for the video directly.

I absolutely agree that this would be really cool. I think the mvCentral plugin for MeidaPortal 1 had this type of feature and it was awesome.
