wxWidgets Discussion Forum

Hi,

I know you can use the media control to play videos but is it possible to display a thumbnail gallery of the videos? I have over 100 music videos for a university course that I want to make a thumbnail gallery of and because there is over 10 GB of data I obviously don't want to load all the videos into memory just to display thumbnails, it'd take forever. Is there a fast low memory intensive way to make thumbnails?

If it is possible can I also make the thumbnail a random frame of the video and not just the first frame?

Thanks

Hi!
I would suggest having a look at mplayer or vlc. Both
should be able to do that and support a broad spectrum of
video formats.

There is no way to do that from wxWidgets itself.
