I have a folder with some video files. In albums view I do not see a thumbnail on the video folder.
I hope to see at least a single picture of the first video file.

Re: v26 - missing thumbnails of folders with video files
I tested my mp4 and mkv video files again. Most of them have a resolution of max. 1920 x 1080 pixels (h264 or h265 video track) with AAC audio track.
On my small smartphone display the thumbnail of the video folder was black.
On tablet I tested it again and saw a thumbnail on the folder of my video folder.
The thumbnail is created by xnview. I am not sure, which file is used.
In my folder I see a thumbnail of file no 5. It could the first file which was saved in the folder.
Maybe it is better to choose a frame of the video file at position 0:05 instead of 0:00, because it often could be black.

I still see black thumbnails in one folder. These are the same formats as in movies, where there are thumbnails. Except for the old mpg, where there is neither a thumbnail nor a video.
