load video via http for thumb extraction
Closed, ResolvedPublic

Description

Author: jgerber

Description:
Creating thumbnails from videos on backends without POSIX access is expensive since a local copy of the video has to be created in /tmp first.

TMH should create thumbs from the public http url and seek using http range requests instead.

avconv supports http so that part should be possible.

One open question is if the public url is the best one or if we can use a swift url instead.
