Android Create Video Thumbnail at specific time

Question

I already got it to create a thumbnail from my video. The code looks like this:

videoGalleryThumbnails.add(ThumbnailUtils.extractThumbnail(ThumbnailUtils.cre         


        

Answer 1

need little changes for this code:

try {

    MediaMetadataRetriever retriever = new MediaMetadataRetriever();

//have to control the version for the setDataSource

   if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 14)
       retriever.setDataSource(video_path, new HashMap());
   else
       retriever.setDataSource(video_path);
   int timeInSeconds = 5;
   Bitmap thumb = retriever.getFrameAtTime(timeInSeconds * 1000000,
                                MediaMetadataRetriever.OPTION_CLOSEST_SYNC);
   imageViewThumb.setImageBitmap(thumb);
   } catch (Exception ex) {
        ex.printStackTrace();
   }

if we don't control the version for "setDataSource" then we will get exceptions. for me it was not working until version controlling.
