Hello! I modified the generation of video thumbnails to use libffmpegthumbnailer so they are generated more quickly. This requires the installation of the libffmpegthumbnailer-dev library and libffmpegthumbnailer4v5, which is normally installed as a dependency on the previous one.
I only tested it on my Linux machine so I included it only for building the binaries for Linux, when I can I will try it for macOS.
I think we need to check the existence of the libffmpegthumbnailer in the CMakeLists.txt but I'm not sure how to do it.
I hope it is useful and thank you very much for your project.
