In CB Gallery, sharing a youtube link works great; the image associated with the video on youtube is pulled and displays as the thumbnail in the gallery.
If I simply upload a video ( mp4 ) , the thumbnail is apparently the first frame of the video. Many videos start blank or black. Is there any way to change the thumbnail?
I see in the backend looking at the media for the gallery, the database is storing the youtube image, so I assume it would support an image for the mp4 file.

Edit the media after upload and use the Thumbnail parameter to upload your own thumbnail for the video.
