  • After render thumbnails not showing first clip

    Posted by Wesley Kelemen on July 5, 2016 at 9:51 pm

    I’m confused because I sent a client some videos on Google drive after render and the thumbnails are showing random clips. My client wants me to put the first clip as “thumbnail” but is this just Google drive showing it weird?

    I used markers throughout but just regular markers and the thumbnails seem to be random…Is it just Google drive?

    If Google drive recompresses the movie, then yes, Drive is probably choosing its own thumbnail. Perhaps you can edit the thumbnail after upload?

    As far as I know, Google Drive chooses the clip thumbnail it displays at random and there’s no way to change it.

    (For some reason I can\’t edit my own posts so apologies in advance for the stupid mistakes and bad English that I can\’t go back and fix)
