How to get Video thumbnail from URL

I am trying to generate a thumbnail of the video. But I cannot use Glide as it colliding with other gallery libraries. I have tried Picasso that is not giving me thumbnail from the URL. ThumbnailUtils.createVideoThumbnail is working in my code but it is too slow.

Can someone suggest any effective tool or technique, to get the thumbnail from the URL in java??

You can use the MediaMetadataRetriever class. For example

   private fun getThumbNail(uri: Uri): Bitmap {
    val retriever = MediaMetadataRetriever()
    retriever.setDataSource(context, uri)

    return retriever.frameAtTime //or frameAtPosition(..)/frameAtIndex(..)
   }
