You can also set a Video Thumbnail by choosing a section of your video to loop before the viewer presses play. These options both result in a still thumbnail image. To change it, select one of three options: Upload a new image (one you have carefully crafted) or Use the current frame - which means you want the frame that is currently showing in your video to the right. But sometimes this can catch the speaker awkwardly, in mid-sentence, or can reveal something about the content you want to keep a secret!

Video still, poster image, first frame … we’ve heard all sorts of terms for the image that appears when the page loads, before your viewers begin watching.
