Picasso image loading library: how to load video thumbnails

Question

I have some videos stored on device locally. And I'd like to use Picasso to handle video thumbnails also along with images. How I can do this?

Seems to be I just need to create my custom Hunter like VideoHunter and use them to create Bitmap from InputStream. But I didn't found any way to set my custom Hunter.

Or fork library and modify BitmapHunter.forRequest is only way to handle video thumbnails in Picasso?

I'm afraid it's too late, but still: Glide library for Android is able to load video thumbnails just from URI/File, pretty much the same way as Images.

So all you need to do is:

Glide.with(Context)
     .load(videoFile) // or URI/path
     .into(imageView);
