Modified JS that proves this is not the issue:

   var win = Ti.UI.createWindow({backgroundColor:'white'});
   
   var video_full_path = 'movie.mp4';
   
   var thumbnail_button = Titanium.UI.createButton({ 
   title: 'Gen Thumbnail', 
   top: 200, 
   height:32, 
   width:160 
   });
   
   thumbnail_button.addEventListener ('click', function() 
   { 
   var recent_vid = Titanium.Media.createVideoPlayer({ 
   contentURL: video_full_path 
   }); 
   
   Ti.API.info ("File: " + video_full_path); 
   Ti.API.info ("Duration: " + recent_vid.duration); 
   Ti.API.info ("Generating thumbnail..."); 
   var thumbnail = recent_vid.thumbnailImageAtTime (2, Titanium.Media.VIDEO_TIME_OPTION_EXACT); 
   Ti.API.info ("Done generating thumbnail: "+thumbnail); 
   win.add(Ti.UI.createImageView({
       image:thumbnail,
       bottom:10,
       height:100,
       width:100
   }));
   });
   
   win.add (thumbnail_button);
   
   var play_button = Titanium.UI.createButton({ 
   title: 'Play Video', 
   top: 100, 
   height:32, 
   width:160 
   });
   
   play_button.addEventListener ('click', function() 
   { 
   var recent_vid = Titanium.Media.createVideoPlayer({ 
   contentURL: video_full_path 
   }); 
   
   Ti.API.info ("Playing " + video_full_path); 
   Ti.API.info ("Duration: " + recent_vid.duration);
   win.add(recent_vid);
   recent_vid.play(); 
   });
   
   win.add (play_button);
   win.open();

Problem could be the video path, or the movie type not being supported under iPhone.

Okay, this was broken in 1.3.0 - it must've been fixed when I did #1044.
