When embedding Vimeo

    Hi there,

    When using the plugin for vimeo videos and using the auto thumbnail feature it keeps pulling a low res 4:3 thumbnail from the video rather than taking a 16:9 thumbnail from the actual 1920×1080 frame that it *should* use.

    [video_lightbox_vimeo5 video_id=12345678 width=800 height=450 auto_thumb=1″]

    How can I either:

    a) Host the thumbnail of my choosing on my wordpress site and use *that* instead of the auto-thumb

    b) Add a command to get wp video lightbox to take an *actual* thumbnail rather than the low-res preview (which isn’t even meant to be referenced as a 16:9 thumb (its always taking the 4:3 ratio).

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hi, you can use the shortcode like the following:

    [video_lightbox_vimeo5 video_id="12345678" width="800" height="450" anchor="http://example.com/wp-content/uploads/images/thumb.jpg"]

    As for the thumbnail, you will need to tweak the plugin code to use a high res thumbnail.
