When you hoover over a URL ink in a cell in Google Sheets you get a thumbnail from the site. I am interested in having this png thumbnail permanently displayed in a cell. I can do this by going to the site, grabbing an image, and inserting it into the cell but this is a bit of a pain. Google sheets seems to have a way of grabbing a representative png from a website. Is there a way I can display the same png image that Google Sheets uses for a hover over thumbnail permanently in a cell? Thanks for your help.

I have images and videos stored on Dropbox. I can retrieve the thumbnails of the images. That's great, but if my metadata is a video, I don't have any thumbnails.
So how can I do to display the first image of the video without download the entire video ? (For waiting time and bandwidth).
I'm getting the thumbnail videos from youtube using the image subdomain practically you can get 5 images sizes like:
"http://img.youtube.com/vi/{videoId}/default.jpg"; // Small Default
"http://img.youtube.com/vi/{videoId}/0.jpg"; // Large Default
"http://img.youtube.com/vi/{videoId}/1.jpg";
"http://img.youtube.com/vi/{videoId}/2.jpg";
"http://img.youtube.com/vi/{videoId}/3.jpg";
I'm wondering if there's a different way to get other sizes for the thumbnails beside the defaults
I am using YTPlayerView library from Google. I want to get the customised size thumbnail of a youtube video for my iOS app.
Can anybody help me how I can achieve this? Current it is giving me the same size thumbnail for a video regardless of the size of my YTPlayerView.
YTPlayerView.load automatically loads its own thumbnail. However, a workaround could be you place a UIImageView on top of the YTPlayerview. And load the customized thumbnail into that UIImageview. You can start playing the video when the UIImageview is clicked using YTplayerview.play. And then hide the thumbnail. In essence, it would give the effect the video is being played upon clicking your customised thumbnail image. You may have to fine-tune some things to make this solution work elegantly.
To retrieve the image for the customised thumbnail, you can use any of 4 generated images of youtube. They are predictably formatted as follows:
https://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/0.jpg
https://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/1.jpg
https://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/2.jpg
https://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/3.jpg
The first one in the list is a full size image and others are thumbnail images. The default thumbnail image (ie. one of 1.jpg, 2.jpg, 3.jpg) is:
https://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/default.jpg
For the high quality version of the thumbnail use a url similar to this:
https://img.youtube.com/vi/<insert-youtube-video-id-here>/hqdefault.jpg
I hope this helps to answer your question.
