I'm currently having an issue where I receive the message below. I tried to install ffmpegthumbnailer using Ubuntu on Windows 10, but nothing seems to solve the issue, directly.

Running....ffmpegthumbnailer -i "C:/Users/CoderName/RubymineProjects/NewApp/tmp/1534794016-3832-0001-8958/thumb/video_test.mp4"

Errno::ENOENT: No such file or directory - ffmpegthumbnailer -i "C:/Users/CoderName/RubymineProjects/NewApp/tmp/1534794016-3832-0001-8958/thumb/video_test.mp4"

Well, did it install ffmpegthumbnailer binary?

Ubuntu App for Windows 10, seems to be stand alone. It doesn't seem to be effecting the Windows 10 OS environment by any means. I was told that I could build ffmpegthumbnailer with mingw. I'm using MSYS2 currently.

What does ffmpegthumbnailer --help say?

RailsCod3rFuture commented 6 years ago

C:\Users\Coder\RubymineProjects\NewApp>ffmpegthumbnailer --help 'ffmpegthumbnailer' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.

MSYS2 is giving me problems. So, I will try to work with Cygwin. What are the steps for making the ffmpegthumbnailer with Cygwin?

Umm… Don't know. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34344804/ffmpegthumbnailer-on-windows-10-ruby-on-rails to the rescue?

I feel ashamed a bit, but here's what all this opensource thing for :D
