Hi all! I'm editing a PDF using Acrobat Pro DC. It's not a pdf I created. I was asked to change a link to a video. I hadn't worked with embedding video links into PDFs before, but I figured it out. However, the image of the video (which is the link) has not updated. Is that something that I do by hand in Photoshop? Or is there a way to get the embedded link to show a picture from the video? I'm attaching a screenshot of the embedded link/image so you can see what I'm talking about. It just seems like it would be automatically generated (like Facebook) when I embed the link. But that's not what's happening.

In the Advanced Options of the video annotation properties, click the radio button to "retrieve poster from the media" if that's not the frame you want, then just get a screen shot of the one you do want and click "Create Poster from file" then select your image.

Thanks you for your quick response! I'm having a hard time finding the video annotation properties. Where are those?

Select the Rich Media Toolset. Select the "Select Object" tool. Double click on your video annotation then check the "Advanced" box at the bottom.
