Is there a way to change the frame (or picture) that is in the video thumbnails? For instance, some video and swf files only show a blank screen. I would like to be able to see something in the thumbnail so I know what it is without having to play each file to find the one I am looking for.
I attached a screenshot for illustration. Some of the files show a frame of the file and others are simply blank. I would like to change the thumbnail to be able to see what it is.

Not possible I'm afraid - you get what you get.

Hi
But you can change the name of the thumbnail to a more meaningful name, that may help, click the text to edit. This does not rename the file on the hard drive only the library name.

If you have any utils to edit metadata then you can do this. Do you have any adobe software installed at all?
