This is no solution for me. I need this images display automatic detecting from url of video.

You are wrong. I need this images display only in SP site. When You click images or post then open topic with embedded video. Like milanos.pl

As far as I have read it requires either a third party API (in which case I have only thus far found a pay per month one) or you need server access (ie. VPS or Dedicated hosting) to install an application called ffmpeg.
With ffmpeg it requires some basic commands for height, width and the frame (placement of video clip in seconds).
There may be another way but I have never attempted this & have only read about the above solutions. An iframe may work as Sapinho® suggested but it will be the actual video & not a thumbnail of a specific frame.
