Image Fetcher and Screen Grabber Upgrade


Recommended Posts

Posted

Background

Generally internet metadata is ok, but sometimes (especially older content) it sucks

I like Screen Grabber as a fallback in these but as a generic grabber it too can sometimes fall short.

 

Feature Request

To improve this, could we add the ability to manually run the screen grabber from the “image fetcher” on a per item basis

I am thinking “edit images > search” as is the way now, but then say in the top right there could be a “Generate Locally” button. 
When clicked the button could bring up a mini player, say 600x400, and the user could scrub to a position in the episode and click “Grab/Generate”
Now the user has the perfect screen grab from their episode, generated at the same aspect and size of the original video.

 

Disclaimer: this enhancement would largely be useful for episode level metadata

Hi, yes nice idea although picking out images for every single episode sounds like a lot of work.
