On this we disagree rick.ca unless I'm missing something.
Maybe the plugin you were thinking of would not be so necessary now that the Images by ID utility is available.On this we disagree rick.ca unless I'm missing something.
I make the sincere apologies for the undischarged promise.
BTW, what happened with the script Reset was working on?I make the sincere apologies for the undischarged promise.
his raises a question in my mind. Is it possible to start a database where images are saved outside the database, and after this utility is used to associate all existing images, change it so images are saved inside the database? If so, it seems to me this would be the best way to handle a conversion (i.e., data from another program) where images are involved. Once the conversion is complete, there would be little need for a script to do the same thing.

That would be much appreciated.
Importing graphics files from near the movie file is one of the functions needed to implement tag functionality in PVD.
...
If it had an option to select the first frame (or whatever frame the user would like) of every video and put it in the "poster" field (or whatever field the user would like) in PVD, that would be awesome!Oh.
But, I think, the promised plug-in all the same I will make. It can be of use to beginners with already existing selection of images on a disk.
I'll give it a try after I get off of work tonight. I didn't even look into it because I thought it wouldn't work. If that works then I don't think I'll need Reset's script, though it might be useful to others!OK. If at you all turns out, I will change priorities of the workings out.
With what types of video files you have problems? Versions 0.9.8.20 and 0.9.9.4 fine take screenshots from formats wmv and avi.
It works pretty good for AVIs, but not for DVDs and Matroska files... (actually this feature dows not work with these formats at all currently )
Does the new beta support the extraction of thumbnails/posters from any type of video media file (WMV and MP4 specifically)
Hopefully the new version will do the image extract automatically for any type of video...With what types of video files you have problems? Versions 0.9.8.20 and 0.9.9.4 fine take screenshots from formats wmv and avi.
The decision about the plug-in will be delayed for a few days or the decision about the script will be delayed for a few days? Do you think the script will be completed earlier?The script cannot be finished in current versions PVD (nor 0.9.8.20 nor 0.9.9.4) because of program limitations. Nostra promised to correct defects to days off. As far as I understand, in version 0.9.9.5 of restrictions will not be.
