Video Thumbnails in Java

Question

I want to generate a thumbnail preview of videos in Java. I\'m mostly JMF and video manipulation alienated.

• Is there an easy way to do it?
• What about

Answer 1

I tried Xuggler and JCodec; Both can generate the frame snapshot;

However, they cannot extract the orientation of the video properly (portrait video became landscape image); Anyone could help about this??
