Research direction

Start by reproducing the VideoPress thumbnail-selection flow described in the linked support article and compare the current Media experience with the original action. Trace the UI entry point that opens the poster-image picker; done means the video thumbnail can again be selected from a sufficiently large view rather than only the tiny side window.
