Generating screenshot/thumbnail

Thumbnail/Screenshot can be generate by passing absolute path of the video file in following function call.

$thumbnail = $obj->generateScreenshot('video_file_path');

If you want to save Thumbnail/Screenshot to a different directory, you can pass the path of the directory as the second parameter.

$thumbnail = $obj->generateScreenshot('video_file_path', 'output_path');

NOTE

• If output path is not set using setOutputPath() or during generateScreenshot(), it will use the path to the video file to save the screenshot.

try {
    $thumbnail = $obj->generateScreenshot('video_file_path');
} catch (Exception $exception) {
    echo $exception->getMessage();
}
