Bootstrap - How get small video thumbnail? - html

Question

I would like to have a small thumbnail of a video, uploaded by user in a HTML webpage. When user clicks on it, it shows the video in the same webpage.
I tried this code:
<div class="embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9">
<iframe class="embed-responsive-item" src="/video/hanson.mp4"></iframe>
</div>
But it is not what I need.
Please note that the videos are not on youtube or so on. And there are numerous video files so the function should be able to create thumbnail from the address of the file on the server.
Is there any way to get thumbnail as I described?
Thanks.

For example this will work with thumbnails in Bootstrap.
Update: Set image src to https
function play(item){
var videoFiles = 'https://www.youtube.com/embed/';
var videoParam = 'autoplay=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&autohide=1';
document.getElementById('player').src = videoFiles + item + '?' + videoParam;
}
<!-- bootstrap -->
<link href="https://stackpath.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.5.0/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet"/>
<div class="d-flex flex-wrap mx-auto" style="width:100%; max-width:400px;">
<div class="col-12 mb-4 player">
<div class="embed-responsive embed-responsive-16by9">
<!-- first item of playlist -->

Just need to add one thumbnail add click event also, I implemented this. look into it,
$(document).ready(function(){
$('#video-id,.demo-play-btn').click(function(){
$('#video-id').get(0).paused ? $('#video-id').get(0).play() : $('#video-id').get(0).pause();
$(".demo-play-btn").toggle();
});
});
.demo-play-btn{
position:absolute;
top:35%;
background:#fff;
left:35%;
cursor:pointer;
}
.demo-play-btn img{
width:50px;
}
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.3.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<div class="demo-video">
<video id="video-id" width="470" height="255" poster="https://i.ytimg.com/vi/5Peo-ivmupE/maxresdefault.jpg">
