Hi again, Thomas,

If you feel comfortable doing so, can you send one of the MP4 files
that had a grey thumbnail generated for it to [email protected]?
(It'll be treated as confidential by us, but if these contain
sensitive or private footage you'd rather not share, simply aiming the
camera that produces them at an empty wall and shooting a few seconds
of that should also work.)

If the import was all files generated by the same camera, but only
some receive grey thumbnails, are there any other things that might be
different about them (such as resolution or file size)?

Cheers,
-c
