Video thumbnails

Definitely need this please! Even Powerpoint does it.

Agree!!!!

This would be a nice feature. Please add

Hmm… Seeing that this request is 2 years old is disappointing! It’s an essential feature to be overlooked in my opinion. Sharing a file right now with the team feels awkward, because the first impression would be “Hmm, too blank” even if the prototype would show the right picture, but first impressions matter.

Please Figma we need this!!

+1 really need this

Why isn’t this a thing still? It’s hard to design around a black rectangle.

We are running into this every day, making slide decks with black screens is just not nice :’) Please Figma! Align the Video with the GIF behavior and let us choose a thumbnail!!!

+1 for this feature, or +5 if you count my whole team!
