Is there any way to display video(snapshot) as as a image in PHP?

  • You've mistaken, pal. PHP is a Hypertext preprocessor, not video editor. – Your Common Sense Sep 17 '10 at 07:54

There is an option without generating a new snapshot, simply using html code :) easy, isn't it?

<video src='DIRECCION_DEL_VIDEO' width='100px' height='60px'/>

Hope you enjoy it!

Well You can create thumbnail using ffmpeg .

Then you can simply execute that command from php using exec. You can show created thumbnail then as you want.

You can check http://flowplayer.org/tutorials/generating-thumbs.html
