Hi, I got this working in the end using the advice here: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg24164.html
Part of the problem was that I was looking for the wrong media type or more correctly, I was telling the scanner it was of a different mime type so it wasn't showing when I searched for it. Hope that helps someone... Cheers, Julius. On 25/11/2010, at 8:26 AM, Julius Spencer wrote: > Hi, > > I am having trouble getting a thumbnail for a video. > > I am targeting 2.1 update 1.
