Android Question How to get video thumbnails from my server and add them to xcustomlistview

[cante]

Hello, I am trying to develop an app that fetches videos from my online server and puts them in a customlistview.
Basically, I want to show the video thumbnails in the customlistview just like YouTube

You will need to generate the thumbnails on the server side. You can use ffmpeg tool for this.

Once you have the images, then the simplest solution is to use SMM: [B4X] SimpleMediaManager (SMM) - framework for images, videos and more

I would store the thumbnail image and the app can download it from the path saved inside a database. Then I can have a custom thumbnail.
