	Using G3 (Greydragon theme) The videos i have uploaded do not show an image on screen while in Album, thumb or photo page - we can only see an icon. Any possibility to get a picture taken from the video itself? Thank. See: [img]http://genepoulin.net/photos/Dec211118.jpg[/img]

	For the first option, i guess i can't (host does'nt have ffmpeg according to 'which ffmpeg' command on shell - and i'm not sure i can install it by myself) I have read somewhere here on the forum that we just have to put two files (ffmpeg and ffprobe) to the gallery/lib folder in order to get the ffmpeg working - so i did - but no luck! Otherwise i will replace - or rather add a thumb file manually for each video in the thumb folder as suggested. Thanks to both of you.
