For example this post:
Shows like this in Sync:
Ideally I’d like to show a thumbnail without grabbing the whole video.
Open to all suggestions!

The first frame of the video with a ▶️ sign would be the best, in my opinion.
If that’s not possible, just a play sign would be OK.
A little play icon might be nice, and then download the video once you’re actually on the page.
I think a generic play icon to indicate it’s a video would be fine.
While on the topic, please also add support for still images hosted at redgifs (typically i.redgifs.com if I recall)
Is it possible to grab the first few hundred kb and grab a frame?
Otherwise I’d say a play button that indicates it’s from catbox and whatever metadata you can grab like file size or length.
I tried this sadly but it seems to require at least a few mb to create a frame!
In that case, maybe add a setting? For users without data limitations, and especially with the relatively rare occurrence of catbox links, a couple megabytes here and there isn’t a big deal. Otherwise, as others have said, a generic play button is perfectly acceptable too.
