On my side, it won't load until I keep refreshing. Which also takes almost a minute. I tried other video players, load almost instantly. But I really like this player, it's minimal design and excellent subtitle rendering.

Hey @raihan-emon, Can you try the debug build in PR #1159

I tried the build you provided and it seems to improve the thumbnail loading time for mp4 and other older video formats. But for the mkv files it's still the same.

Hey @raihan-emon, Can you share some video files where thumbnail loading time is higher

And this is how fast KMP and other players generate thumbnails.

Not the screen recordings. Can you share the video files in the mega folder with me so I can debug why it's taking that much time

You don't need my exact video files. You can download couple of movies in mkv format, put them in a folder and then try.

The debug build was an improvement for me but I always thought this app generated thumbnails in a reasonable amount of time, even with lots of small video files.
