Is it possible to Generate a thumbnail from a video url in android

by

Without downloading video you can generate thumbnail from below code:

public static Bitmap retriveVideoFrameFromVideo(String videoPath) throws Throwable
{
    Bitmap bitmap = null;
    MediaMetadataRetriever mediaMetadataRetriever = null;
    try
    {
        mediaMetadataRetriever = new MediaMetadataRetriever();
        if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= 14)
            mediaMetadataRetriever.setDataSource(videoPath, new HashMap<String, String>());
        else
            mediaMetadataRetriever.setDataSource(videoPath);
   //   mediaMetadataRetriever.setDataSource(videoPath);
        bitmap = mediaMetadataRetriever.getFrameAtTime();
    } catch (Exception e) {
        e.printStackTrace();
        throw new Throwable("Exception in retriveVideoFrameFromVideo(String videoPath)" + e.getMessage());

    } finally {
        if (mediaMetadataRetriever != null) {
            mediaMetadataRetriever.release();
        }
    }
    return bitmap;
}

NOTE : Video is stored as Intra and non Intra (Picture frames) getFrameAtTime will return the closest non- Intra frame as Bitmap. So basically it won’t download the entire video.
