Hi, I am trying to upload a video, but there is no thumbnail when I try to upload it. Does this website automatically generate one, or do I have to find some way to add one?

Flash just gets a big image that says "Flash." Webm seems to grab a screencap of about a second in.

WebM uses ffmpeg thumbnail filter and I assume it's using default value, meaning it takes first 100 frames, compares them trying to find most representative frame and use that.
https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#thumbnail
This reduces the changes of black or odd frame showing up, but if e.g. 60 FPS video has first three seconds black, thumbnail will still turn solid black.
