I am just learning about trickplay. I understand that it allows smooth scrubbing because it pre-generates thumbnails or something along those lines. What I don't know is, are these individual thumbnails for every single frame in a film? I don't think that would make much sense, so could someone please explain to me exactly what's going on? How much storage space is used to have the ability to trickplay/scrub a standard 90-minute movie? I'm curious what kind of space is going to be needed for my library with over 4000 movies.
