Another feature that would be nice to have in the next release is the ability to assign a thumbnail image to video objects and video albums. This can be done by extracting a frame out of the video. If it's too much work to allow the users to extract any frame out of the video for thumbnail, then use the 1st frame. This feature would significantly enhance the look of video albums as all the video objects are currently assigned the same generic thumbnail for videos.

I agree. It is on the to-do list.

I'd agree with this request but rather than the first frame of the video, maybe from a little way in so that there are no black thumbnails

Good idea. A better approach is to allow the users to select any frame they want as the video thumbnail :-)
