Thumbnails

[9at8]

Generate video thumbnails on the fly, in the browser. Doing it on the client-side (instead of uploading the video somewhere to generate thumbnails) is important, as we don't want to collect any user data.

Maybe we can try to implement something like this: https://jsfiddle.net/kmturley/z99cmwtq/ Although I'm not sure about performant it would be to seek the entire video all at once. Regardless, it's worth a try 🤷‍♂️ If we can find a better way, I'm all ears.

• generate thumbnails
• add a toggle on the video to toggle thumbnails (could be very useful if generating thumbnails is a resource-intensive task)
• add a default setting to enable/disable thumbnail generation
