entityResource getById Media with thumbnail
Hello everyone.

The item i get from the dialogService.mediaPicker callback. Contains a thumbnail i can use.
```
dialogService.mediaPicker({
        multiPicker: false,
        callback: myCallback,
        startNodeId: node.parentId,
        showDetails: false,
        onlyImages: true
 });
```
So my question is. Is it possible to get the Media thumbnail from entityResource.getById somehow?
```
entityResource.getById(val, "Media").then(function (item) {
    myCallback(item);
});
```

Hello,

you can use the "mediaHelper" to get the thumbnail as such:
```
entityResource.getById(val, "Media").then(function (item) {

//only show non-trashed items
if (item.parentId >= -1) {

    if (!item.thumbnail) {
        item.thumbnail = mediaHelper.resolveFileFromEntity(item);
    }

});
```
check the mediaHelper with other methods such as getting the thumbnail here: https://umbraco.github.io/Belle/#/api/umbraco.services.mediaHelper

Hi,

I injected mediaHelper into my custom directive, but it is always undefined. Anything special to use it?
```
angular.module("umbraco.directives")
.directive('umbMediaPicker', function (dialogService, mediaHelper, entityResource) {
```
I am trying to get a url for the image selected by the user.

Thanks
