Thumbnails in Freeframe-Plugins

[elio]

Hello,

I saw that Resolume's Source-Plugins (Gradient, Feedback etc.) have a thumbnail Icon.
I'd like to have a preview for my source-plugin, too. Best would be to have an image representing a snapshot of the current content, so I can differentiate different

How does Resolume manage to display thumbnails of Freeframe Source-Plugins? What do I have to put into my code?

Thanks Elio

You guys posted the bridge on the news, but not help for this previous question?
That seems an easy way.

There is no specific protocol for this. Thumbnails are created by running the source in the background and taking a sample a few frames in.

Thanks for the info gogo10. But it does not really work for me ;(
When debugging, I see that ProcessOpenGL() does not get called before I select the Clip for preview.
Do I need to support some special FF_CAP_XXXX capabilities?

Ping?

Can you try emptying your preview thumbnail folder?
