Thanks so much Andrew, this mod is truly brilliant.

Currently it doesn't handle thumbnails of videos automatically, so you have to give the entry an associated image if you want something to appear.

For thumbnails of images, this is automatic - go to LDM/admin/settings/Controls on Images and Icons

Set link_imagesize to a non-zero value, and LDM will then automatically create thumbnails that size. You can use the other settings in this section to control whether the thumbs are cached, etc.

Do you know of a reliable tool for extracting the first frame/other frame from video files that works across servers? Does the imageimagic package do this?
