:I think not, the thumbnail is generated by a parser function, so, whatever you put, the parser function will try to load a thumbnail based on what was specified when calling the function and won't give any feedback parameter/info that could be used to tag it as non-existant...

Detecting Broken Videos

Would it be possible to detect when a broken link is used and add some category to pages with broken links? Currently the pane seems to load an all black preview image, not clear if there's meta-data allowing it to id'd as non-existent.Kolano (talk) 21:43, 29 May 2013 (CEST)

YouTube

DailyMotion

DivShare

Interia

EmbedVideo does not recognize the video service "interia".

Vimeo

EmbedVideo received the bad id "NotExist" for the service "vimeo".

...It's too bad they aren't handled in the same way. Kolano (talk) 19:55, 26 November 2015 (CET)
