 * Sorry to hear you are having trouble! I would like to help you out, but you can
   always go to the Video Thumbnails page in Settings and then click “Mass Actions.”
   Then you can click the “Clear Video Thumbnails” button to delete all thumbnails
   created by the plugin.

 * I deleted 2400 media files and used the delete feature to take care of the last
   few and custom fields and then rescaned posts.
    I had 3000 posts befor I used
   the delete feature and now the’re only 1700!

 * If I delete tumbnails using FTP and then used clear thumbnails will this also
   remove all database tables aswell left from using FTP to delete thumbnails?

 * If I delete tumbnails from media library, the ones where video thumbnail has 
   added to post that do not contain a thumbnail, then use scan thumbnails will 
   this return those posts to using default.jpg instead of showing a missing image.
