Do you have a timeline on this? Auto splash images would be a big time saver for us. We are using FVPlayer to play MP4s in instead of GIFs. It’s saving us a ton of bandwidth and page speed but creation of images is a pain when you may be dealing with 5-10 on a post.

BTW, I just did some CSS stuff to hide enough of the video UI to make it look like a simple GIF on/off thing. “GIF mode” might be a nice option… I know more and more people are moving from GIF to video so it could be a selling point.

An auto splash image generator that could grab the first frame of the video would be ideal in this situation to sell it as a start of a gif.

Thanks!
