I am using Coppermine 1.4.12 and need to add a Thumbnail to Movies. I have followed the instructions in the docs, section "4.9.2 Custom Thumbnails", using both provided methods. Both methods provide me with a Thumbnail where there used to be a generic icon, but it also leaves me with the .JPG as well. Deleting the .JPG returns the movie back to the generic thumbnail.

What am I doing wrong?

Thank you,

Lyman

You haven't done as suggested in the docs: you're suppossed to upload the custom thumbnail by FTP to the folder the video resides in. You're not suppossed to batch-add the thumbnail, nor are you suppossed to use http upload the custom thumbnail. Re-read the docs.

Thanks.

What I was not doing was prefixing the thumbnail with "thumb". I.e., Thumb_ImageName.Jpg". Having done that it works fine. I know, I know. Read the docs.... :)
