Thanks for this straight forward alternative to the other video embedders. I'm really a fan of keeping things uncluttered! :-) However, I ran into a problem with the latest 2.x dev version:

Here's what I did..

- create a video field in a content type
- add video
- choose thumbnail to display the video in the node

=> img delivers a 404

The same applies when loading contents via views. The formatter creates the following URL: /sites/default/files/styles//public/video_embed_field_thumbnails/vimeo/23580783.jpg - notice that there are a) 2 forward slashes in the middle. Also, that path doesn't exist on my installation at all (there is no "public" in my "styles" folder). However, there is a folder called "video_embed_field_thumbnails" in "default/files".

It doesn't matter which image style I choose, the 404 still exists. It looks like the initial path for the source file is not being generated properly, therefore also derivatives of the original thumbnail fail to generate.

Would be great if you could have a look at this!

Hi, I think I fixed this - it looks to me like no thumbnails using the original image formatter would work :/

The fix is in 2.0-alpha1

Hey thanks a lot! Works in current dev. Re-saving the nodes makes the thumbnails appear.

The problem isn't fixed per say - the issue is that vimeo thumbnails are not immediately created upon upload, so creating the content on drupal before they are finished results in broken thumbnails.

I would like to add in support for perhaps refreshing thumbnails on cron ... or something along those lines, so that when the thumbnails are available, they are used.

#1537084: Option to pull vimeo thumbnail after video has finished processing - Gonna use this issue to work on this.

Sorry for reopening, but this issue persists in the latest DEV.

I am using VimeoPro and have set up and tested this in all possible options.

All video thumbnails for Vimeo show up with the "src" pointing to the domain itself....no image:

<img src="http://www.thedoamin.com/">

The thumbnails exist and the video was processed long ago. I tested it both with automatically generated thumbnails and the custom one I added in Vimeo.
This field is being formatted via Views. I tested all image styles and no image style (original). I resaved the node as suggested here. I cleared caches.

No dice.
