Can't handle this at this time, but here is a ballpark figure with some pointers to give you some ideas as it seems this is an important script for you...

This is more complicated than you think - play 30 seconds? total or at a time? if you want to limit the session to 30 secs max, then you need a vod player that is tracking user time. Think around $2-3k for that. If on hitting play, the clock counts down, but can be reset on skipping to another section, then $3-500 for a basci custm player

c. Pay for the clip, and get download option for the single clip.
(I have the option in admin to toggle on which ones)

Basic options, figure about 7-10hrs to complete with all the biller/admin APIs, so around $500-$1000

Very simple ffmpeg or mplayer script - $100

Has to be included in the custom player. either pre- or post-roll. It calls a simple XML file, that is dynamic so you can control what it shows. So basic dynamic XML script generation $100 tack on an extra $100 for the fussy nonsense that goes with "customisation"

4. Script then thumbnails, or screen grabs.
5. Post to script/site.
What would make this even better would be if I can upload all my clips into a 'temp' folder and then manage them into the script from there. That way I am not working with some web interface that will crash out during the upload like many are prone to do.

Your "what would make this better" is the better way to code stuff like this - keep everything offline etc, exactly for the reason you stated. *IF* and this is very very important, you have a server that is perfectly setup to run ffmpeg *and* mplayer (for wmv's) with all the codecs working between them, *THEN* this is quite straightforward and is around $800-$1.3k, depending upon what CMS this is using (extensive or simple plugin)
So, if I were to quote you, which I can't, I'd say you shouldn't be shocked at $5k quote
