video thumbnails !
« on: October 29, 2012, 11:20:25 PM »
hello guys

Is there a way to show thumbnails for videos ( avi - mpg ... etc ) ?
i see Mr.Neal ManBear answer in another topic about thumbnails

Quote
In PCManFM > Edit > Preferences > Display tab > Don not generate thumbnails for files exceeding this size = 2048kb (default). Change the size to something large enough to cover your largest file.

even i change the size, some of video thumbnails appear ( small size ) but it does not generate thumbnails for my larger videos ?

any idea guys.

if you like thumbnails on videos, you should install totem video player.
