NAME

       ffmpegthumbnailer - fast and lightweight video thumbnailer

SYNOPSIS

       ffmpegthumbnailer [options]

DESCRIPTION

       Ffmpegthumbnailer  is  a lightweight video thumbnailer that can be used
       by file managers  to  create  thumbnails  for  your  video  files.  The
       thumbnailer  uses  ffmpeg  to  decode  frames  from the video files, so
       supported videoformats depend on the configuration flags of ffmpeg.
