Hi everyone,  
I want to have thumbnails for all posts with video.  
With official [discourse-topic-thumbnails](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-topic-thumbnails)

But it doesn’t work for [discourse-video-plugin](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-video) videos.

Mux supports thumbnails using next approach for uploaded videos:

> **[Get thumbnails and images from a video | Mux](https://www.mux.com/docs/guides/get-images-from-a-video)**
>
> Learn how to get images from a video to show a preview thumbnail or poster image.

In short -

```plaintext
https://image.mux.com/{PLAYBACK_ID}/thumbnail.{png|jpg|webp}

```

And we have [playback\_id from video-plugin](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-video/blob/069153094b19532a73f2e7f1461567b4f16b9bc8/assets/javascripts/discourse/initializers/discourse-video.js#L38)

But when I add such link to the image (both manually or through JS) - it doen’t generate thumbnail as well.

What can be the way to solve this? Should it be a fix for [discourse-video-plugin](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-video) or in  
[discourse-topic-thumbnails](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-topic-thumbnails)

There was a proposition to instead create a plugin for Mux player - but I will not have enough time to support it later…

> Hi, It seems that the official [Mux Video Plugin](https://github.com/discourse/discourse-video) doesn’t support thumbnails - and YouTube/Vimeo videos have nice thumbnails. What is the most correct way to fix it? Should I look in plugin logic or is there any thumbnail generator for the topics that can be triggered? It was my long pause here… Thank you!

Thank you!
