 * Hello,
 * I’ve set to create one thumbnail per video uploaded. When I upload two videos
   at the same time, the second video creates an extra thumbnail with the suffix‘
   _thumb3’. It seems the cron job ‘kgvid_cron_new_attachment’ is called twice with
   the same post_id and I’m not sure why that happens.
   I’ve added the following 
   code to prevent this:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       function kgvid_cron_new_attachment_handler_cancel_extra_thumbs($post_id, $force = false) {
   
       	if(metadata_exists('post', $post_id, "_kgflashmediaplayer-poster")){
   
       		remove_action('kgvid_cron_new_attachment', 'kgvid_cron_new_attachment_handler', 10);
       	}
       }
       add_action('kgvid_cron_new_attachment', 'kgvid_cron_new_attachment_handler_cancel_extra_thumbs', 9, 2);
       ```
   
 * Thank you.

 * Thanks, I’ll look into it. Have you updated to Videopack version 4.8 or is this
   happening in 4.7?

 * I think this is fixed in 4.8.1, although I wasn’t able to duplicate it. Let me
   know if you still see it happening.
