Feature #4222
Thumbnail support
0%
Description
Some Kodi skins support PVR Thumbnails. I guess this would be three different features:
- support Thumbnails via HTSP
- create Thumbnail files for recordings (could also be done with a post-processing script)
- creat Thumbnail files for channels (on-request from kodi, some skins like Mimic support showing only 8 of your most-watched channels, but probably still not a good idea, could also be done with an external script, but i would do it (optionally) with the channel-discovery and/or epg-scan, when the channel/mux is tuned anyway)

Updated by https://trac.ffmpeg.org/wiki/Create%20a%20thumbnail%20image%20every%20X%20seconds%20of%20the%20video
but there is a small problem,
TVH is OnDemand streamer aka images from used streams can be taken.
example from TSReader

Updated by Yeahyeah, i'm aware that you can do this with ffmpeg, that's what i meant with "could also be done with a post-processing script". But having thumbs on the tvheadend-server is pretty pointless, if you can't access them via htsp...
But now that i'm thinking about it, if you have *.edl files, kodi will use the marks to jump around the advertisments. Does someone know if the cutmarks are somehow transmitted via htsp, or is there already a generic way in htsp to access a file on the server...?
