Auto Create vs Media Sources #12

There's a problem when Auto Create's used with Media Sources. Because of the use of Media Sources phpThumbsUp doesn't create a thumbnail.

Right now phpThumbsUp doesn't automatically assume a media source on this setting. For now if your media source type is just a folder in the file system, you can just add the path in the setting, but if it's anything else (like Amazon S3) you're out of luck.

This is definitely something we're working to implement, and allowing a user to specify a media source on those paths is a great idea.

Can you give an example of phpThumbsUp use with a media source in the file system? What settings need to be changed (either in the media source or phpThumbsUp settings) to get it to work? A bit of expansion on the documentation regarding media sources would be a real help.
