Test! (in debug mode)
//copy from screen
            Rectangle rc = Screen.PrimaryScreen.Bounds;
            Bitmap img = new Bitmap(rc.Width, rc.Height, PixelFormat.Format16bppRgb555);
            using (Graphics memoryGrahics = Graphics.FromImage(img))
                memoryGrahics.CopyFromScreen(rc.X, rc.Y, 0, 0, rc.Size, CopyPixelOperation.SourceCopy);
            //img size 1280x1024
            Stopwatch sw = new Stopwatch(), sw2 = new Stopwatch();
            
            //non-proportional
            sw.Start();
            Image i1 = ThumbnailLow(img, new Size(100, 100)); sw.Stop();// 7 ms
            sw2.Start();
            Image i2 = img.GetThumbnailImage(100, 100, null, IntPtr.Zero); sw2.Stop();//15 ms
            //proportional
            sw.Reset(); sw.Start();
            i1 = ThumbnailLow(img, new Size(128, 102)); sw.Stop();// 6 ms
            sw2.Reset(); sw2.Start();
            i2 = img.GetThumbnailImage(128, 102, null, IntPtr.Zero); sw2.Stop();//15 ms
            
For img size 1280x1024 ThumbnailLow : 6 to 7 ms GetThumbnailImage: 15 ms Pros.... the quality is the same for videos or images in both cases Opposites.... in text mode... becomes hard to read if you want speed this is your method, but if you wants qualitty definitely not
