kissu will always pick a particular frame I think

I think it's the halfway point. I'm able to customize it, but I've never looked at it too hard

I could pick frame zero, but if you pick the halfway point of a video and then inject a 1 frame image then it should trick it

I've also heard it's possible to change it, but it required effort and I didn't want to do it so I just use spoiler if it spoils things

I think frame 0 would probably be for the best, sometimes a webm is spoiled by showing its mid contents first.

The main issue with using frame zero is that a lot of videos with a fade-in at the beginning wind up with solid black thumbnails.

Frame 10?

Or, frame 10 if longer than 10 frames and halfway through if not?

Something like that might work well. I don't know any statistics on how long these fade-ins last so you'd have to test it on videos people have posted.

This seems to have a lot of examples, you could use them for testing:
