I want to include video thumbnails as part of my python app. However, I want to distribute it easily for use on Ubuntu mainly (plus other distros, of course, but Ubuntu is my main target).
However! PyMedia, which is often suggested, is not available as far as I’m aware in the default repositories. So, is there an alternative? I’ve noticed that nautilus makes screenshots so there has to be a way.
Nautilus uses GStreamer. Python bindings are available on Ubuntu in the package
python-gst. Doc
