NAME
       totem-video-thumbnailer - video thumbnailer for the GNOME desktop

SYNOPSYS
       totem-video-thumbnailer [-j|--jpeg] [-l|--no-limit] [-g num|--gallery
       num] [-s size] input output [backend options]

DESCRIPTION
       This manual page documents briefly the totem-video-thumbnailer command.
       This manual page was written for the Debian Project because  the
       original program does not have a manual page.

       totem-video-thumbnailer is used internally by GNOME applications such
       as nautilus to generate PNG thumbnails of video files. While it is
       possible to invoke it manually, it is usually done automatically by
       nautilus.

ARGUMENTS
       input   The input filename. This can be in any format that totem can
               play.

       output  The output filename, output in PNG format.

       backend options
               Options to be passed to the backend (i.e. gstreamer).

OPTIONS
       -j --jpeg
               Switch the output format to JPEG. The default is PNG.

       -g num --gallery num
               Output a gallery of the given number (0 is the default) of
               screenshots.

       -l --no-limit
               Don't limit the thumbnailing time to 30 seconds. For debugging
               purposes.

       -s size The size of the thumbnail. Example: "64x64". The default is
               "128x96".
