Video ffmpeg helper question [#217241]

I run windows, have ffmpeg installed at c:\ffmpeg. I open the video ffmpeg helper settings, enter as the path c:\ffmpeg\ffmpeg.exe (which is physically there), but I always get the message "Set correct path for thumbnailer".

Correction: I got it, php was in safe mode.
Anyway, it does not create any thumbnail.
In the video ffmpeg helper settings is: -i %videofile -an -y -f mjpeg -ss %seek -vframes 1 %thumbfile as the parameter. I switched "Debug auto thumbnail process" on, and I get at top of the screen: executingc:\ffmpeg\ffmpeg.exe -i, thats all. and no thumbnail or error anywhere. Whats wrong?

Unfortunately the ffmpeg plugin for the video module only works on Linux systems. Then, with the current code you will be not able to use it on windows.

As I'm not able to develop on a windows machine I can't add the support for windows right now.
