Configure video thumbnails

You must install ffmpeg and qt-faststart on your system to get video thumbnails working.

• On Ubuntu, install them by executing the following commands:

  $ sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mc3man/trusty-media $ sudo apt-get update $ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg $ sudo apt-get install libav-tools

• On CentOS, install them by executing the following commands:

  $ sudo yum install epel-release $ sudo yum localinstall –nogpgcheck https://download1.rpmfusion.org/free/el/rpmfusion-free-release-7.noarch.rpm https://download1.rpmfusion.org/nonfree/el/rpmfusion-nonfree-release-7.noarch.rpm $ sudo yum install ffmpeg ffmpeg-devel

• Once these programs are installed, check the path to ffmpeg:

  $ which ffmpeg

• Navigate to the Pimcore admin panel at “Settings -> System Settings -> Assets” and add the full path to the ffmpeg binary.
