# Obsidian Thumbnails
This plugin lets you insert video thumbnails into your notes to help you keep track of what you're actually linking.

Works with Youtube and Vimeo.

## Usage
Place a code block with the `vid` type, and include the link to your video:
````markdown
```vid
https://youtu.be/dQw4w9WgXcQ
```
````
*OR* use the "Insert from clipboard" command (bit faster)
## Commands
### Insert thumbnail from URL in clipboard
If you have a video URL in your clipboard, this command will create the code block for you.

### Insert video title link from URL in clipboard
If you have a video URL in your clipboard, this command will automatically create a link with the text set to the video title.

## Offline Options
If you're offline, the thumbnails will just appear like a normal link.
### **Save Thumbnail Info**
If you want your thumbnails to work better offline, you can enable `Save Thumbnail Info` in the settings tab. When offline, the image will be blank but the title and channel will be shown like normal.
### **Save Images**
If you also want to store the thumbnail images locally, you can enable `Save Images` in the settings tab. Then you will be able to see the images whether you're online or not.
