I'm setting up video displays using the FlashVideo module and JW Player. Am trying to find out if there is some method available for having thumbnails generated from these video files, short of the obvious method of created and uploading them manually.

Not sure if there's anything available for that module, but this page shows some quick PHP snipplets to grab an image from a video using FFMPEG:

If you have the ffmpeg_php extension installed, then you can use the ffmpeg_frame class get the image:
