i want to use custom image as thumbnail for remote video (youtube) in my paragraphs , I create one field called custom image under remote video and used the below code.

if ($entity->bundle() === 'remote_video' && isset($entity->get('field_custom_image')->target_id)) {
  $entity->get('thumbnail')->target_id = $entity->get('field_optional_custom_image')->target_id;
}

The thumbnail image is replaced by a custom image in media view, but when I tried to use that media in page, it is still using the Youtube thumbnail image.

Any help on this is greatly appreciated.

  • I set this up in the URL to Video Filter module (drupal.org/project/url_to_video_filter). You can examine the source code and JS to see how I did it. It's been a few years so I don't remember the specifics.

  • The thumbnail is determined by a MediaSource plugin (here's oembed and here's image for comparison because it pulls from a field in the entity). It's that dropdown you select when you create a new media type. You just need to extend the oembed one and have it pull from a field on the entity like image. Then update the media type via config (since the dropdown is disabled after create).
