Abstract

A method includes receiving a plurality of images at an encoder device and encoding the plurality of encoder images to generate an output video stream, where the output video stream includes a plurality of encoded video frames corresponding to the plurality of images. During generation of the output video stream, the encoder device receives a notification that a particular image of the plurality of images satisfies a thumbnail generation condition. In response to the notification, the encoder device generates a thumbnail from the particular image and sends the output video stream to a media server.
