Duncan-
  The mplayer version should be fine, just that the systems I compile
on do not have the xvid or lame libraries. I just compile a version
mplayer with the minimal set of extra libraries I can. Every library I
have to add is one more I will have to keep updated. Most of the
problems I have encountered seem to relate to changes between 1.6.2
and 1.7.3 default settings

output from command :
>>> v.snapshot('/mnt/freevo/09-07_13_00_Tales_From_the_Darkside_-_I_Can_t_Help_Saying_Goodbye.avi')
no imagefile found
/root/.freevo/vfs/mnt/freevo/09-07_13_00_Tales_From_the_Darkside_-_I_Can_t_Help_Saying_Goodbye.avi.raw.tmp

No errors and there is nothing in /root/.freevo/vfs/mnt/freevo/

If freevo is going to require mplayer built with extra library's
beyond what mplayer provides, then those are going to need to be
listed as required on the Freevo source and dependency pages. Has the
thumbnail code changed from the 1.6.2 release? Or rather does it
expect different mplayer options?
