Hello,
I am the author of piwigo-videojs and I implemented a new feature:
Synchronization of video metadata and auto creation of thumbnail.
I would like people to test it before doing the documentation and release it.
Basically a new tab in the admin panel is present.
This tab will:
* Look for all the supported video by the plugin (mp4,ogg,webm)
* Parse the metadata from each video (filesize, width, height, latitude, longitude) and push them to the DB.
* Create a thumbnail at the selected second and push it to the DB.
To test:
Copy the video to an album in your gallery.
Synchronize as usual, 'Tools' > 'Synchronization'
Go to the plugin page 'Plugins' -> 'VideoJS' -> 'Synchronization'
Run the Synchronization.
Go back to your album and you should see the thumbnail. Click on it and you should see the video with a poster, Click play and it should start.
The code is commit into github.
So remove the previous version and clone it:
$ git clone git://github.com/xbgmsharp/piwigo-videojs.git
Ensure you have ffmpeg install '/usr/bin/ffmpeg'.
Ensure of permission to read and execute the video file.
Ensure of permission to write in the pwg_representative of you albums.
Ensure the presence of 'OpenStreetMap' or 'RV Maps & Earth' plugin to allow latitude and longitude support.
I have test it successfully on video from my iPhone.
Thanks.

I've tested out this plugin and really like the new features. I'm testing on a Windows platform, however, and the ffmpeg thumbnail generation doesn't work. I verified that I can do the conversion via command line using the command you outlined in the Wiki documentation. I suspect it is a path issue. ffmpeg is in the path for my system, but /usr/bin doesn't exist on Windows. Does the code use /usr/bin or just ffmpeg? ffmpeg without the path should work.
