I am showing videos in a gallery but the thumbnails are always blank until the user mouses over them. Is there any way or setting I can change to get the gallery to show thumbnails of the videos?
Hi Anralore,
I have a solution for this.
You can create a database to store the videos & thumbnails. Then you can connect the gallery to the thumbnail field using a DATASET . Then you can create a DYNAMIC ITEM PAGE for the videos. Then all you need to do is connect the gallery link to the dynamic item page .

Then you will have your thumbnails linked to the videos! I do hope this solved your problem.
Thank you, however my gallery is displaying videos stored externally so this would not work for me. Also videos are uploaded and deleted by users to I cannot make thumbnails ahead of time.
@anralore ok. I am sorry. I haven’t worked with external databases before. Sorry. This won’t work.
@arthurvalatin It is all right, thank you for trying.
