@TeamYouTube Why do some videos have an actual thumbnail and some just have the default film strip icon? img[dot]youtube[dot]comvi/**insert video code here**/sddefault.jpg only pulls a correct thumbnail on some videos...
We'd like to help. Mind sharing screenshots and more info about the issue for us to look into it? Keep us posted.

Yeah, you can pull a 'custom' thumbnail for some videos and some videos just get this 'generic' logo.pic.twitter.com/evM7yxZ7wX
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

I'm trying to pull these thumbnails dynamically to lazy-load them on a website, but I can only get my chosen thumbnail some of the time. This seems to be the case with random videos off the YT homepage as well.

Just to confirm, does this happen across multiple browsers? let us know if using Incognito mode helps!
