The popular open-source VLC video player was demonstrated on the floor of CES 2025 with automatic AI subtitling and translation, generated locally and offline in real time. Parent organization VideoLAN shared a video on Tuesday in which president Jean-Baptiste Kempf shows off the new feature, which uses open-source AI models to generate subtitles for videos in several languages.

I get what you are saying, but I don't think there is any standardized format for these trickplay images. The same images from Plex would likely not be usable in Jellyfin without converting the metadata (e.g. to which time in the video an image belongs to). So VLC probably does not have a good way to understand trickplay images not made by VLC.
