Preview image with the JWplayer?

Hi everyone,

I got my JWplayer to work with a livestream, however is there a way to have a preview image on the player when the user has not yet hit the “play” button?

Here’s my code:

<embed

flashvars=“file=beheard&streamer=rtmp://ec2-50-18-135-35.us-west-1.compute.amazonaws.com:1935/live&provider=rtmp”

allowfullscreen=“true”

allowscripaccess=“always”

id=“player1”

name=“player1”

src=“player.swf”

width=“480”

height=“270”

/>

I think there is. Check the JW player Flashvars reference

Take a look at the ModuleCreateSnapshot example

yes… preview with manual created image…

but is there maybe some way of getting WOWZA snapshot created every ex.10 seconds of current live stream in JPG format… or some other - nonWOWZA way to manage that?
