Thumbnails for videos

[Vincent Barberet]

Dear users,

When I download videos (same behaviour with extension .mov or .mts), there is no thumbnails generated anymore.
I just have in my albums the generic icon depicting a movie.

It was working fine before latest updates, but I cannot tell you when the thumbnails generation of videos stopped working.
I've checked that .MTS are well in the digikam configuration as extra extensions for videos. The fact that it does not work anymore for .MOV too (that is part of the extensions automatically recognised) let me think that it is not just linked with the digikam configuration.

The same folder has correct thumbnails generation in konqueror and in dolphin.

From command line, here is the kind of message I got:
digikam(15986)/digikam (core) Digikam::ThumbnailCreator::createThumbnail: Cannot create thumbnail for  "/media/video/VIDEO_VINCENT/Noel_2011/MVI_2449.MOV"
digikam(15986)/digikam (core) Digikam::ThumbnailCreator::load: Thumbnail is null for  "/media/video/VIDEO_VINCENT/Noel_2011/MVI_2449.MOV"

I'm using Digikam Version 2.4.1, with KDE 4.7.3

What can I do to have this feature back ?

regards

Vincent

Looks like there-s a (confirmed) bug report for this already :

Same issue with KDE 4.7.4
