Thumbnails for videos

This may have been answered before but I just want to make sure 'cause I can't seem to find the answer, when uploading multimedia files can the software auto-generate a thumbnail for the video?

No the software can not generate thumbnails from a video. You can on the second screen upload an optional thumbnail yourself to represent the video.

No problem have a good night let us know if there is anything else we can assist with.

I'm posted this on another thread, but I want to be clear:

I have no plans on actually uploading video to my PP or RP site.

All videos will be hosted elsewhere (ie YouTube, Brightcove, etc)

With that in mind, are thumbnails still a 'no go'?

You can not show photos or video from an external site. Anything shown in photopost has to be uploaded and processed by photopost. So as posted the answer is no sorry.
