    I have used movie thumbnailer for many years, and very successfully and with complete satisfaction in the results. A slight learning curve, but soon mastered. Highly recommended.

    looks nice, but I can't scroll down so I can't use it. I'm using Linux Mint... they should fix that

    getting error on install of exe file"mtn.exe not found in current directory - please place this file in the same directory as mtn.exe". impossible to do when extracting, the file needs recompiling by the looks of things
