Description

The script 'videometadata' in the contrib directory uses mplayer to create thumbnail images for series. mplayer does not always extract the first frame correctly. So here's a patch which uses the second frame (png file) of the mplayer output.

I also added the option to compress the resulting png images (-vo png:z=9)

(In [14768]) In the videometadata script used to grab thumbnails for use in MythVideo? use the second frame grabbed by mplayer as the first one is sometimes corrupted.
