Hi

I just changed the aspect ration from 90x90 to 100x75 (100x77) for thumbnails to be generated by ffmpeg. But after the change no thumbnail were being generated, whereas reverting it back to 90x90, thumbnails were again being generated smoothly.

Are there any allowed values for this aspect ratio? because I do not like the distorted images in the square thumbnails.

Is this an issue of ffmpeg with my hosting provider. Please suggest what should I do.

P.S.: I even tried to put thumbnails directly to the output directory with proper names, but it never shows on the site, seems to be not getting associated with the video. I do not know what is the reason.

Thanks & Regards

Hi

Finally I put this same question to my hosting provider. The issue was that thumbnail creation Frame size must be multiple of 2 so 100x75 or 100 X 77 would not work. So I tried 100x76 and things were back to normal.

I hope this helps others who may land up in a similar issue.

Thanks & Regards

I had the same problem with Drupal 6 and FlashVideo 6.x-1.5-beta2.
Using odd numbers (eg 350x200 instead of 351x199) on the Thumbnail dimensions field solved the issue...
