Nealrodriguez, it is only one video, so the sitemap is fairly small. The video itself comprises 10 MB and the thumbnail 6 kB.

And as I said, the thumbnail is correctly displayed in google video search but not in the organic's universal search.

I have meanwhile climbed spot #1 with this page (being NOT logged in;), so I assume google values the video of high relevance and quality. But this "image not available-"dummy is an awful deterrer. Any chance to get a google technician have a look at it?

I did NOT submit it to youtube. I am planning to do so with other videos later on, but not with this one, yet.
