The thumbnailer doesn't generate thumbnails for files with a : or a &.
For what kind of files? Image files or other files? And for which file systems?
.avi and .mpg files. Using ext3.
Works properly using the totem video thumbnail. What thumbnailer do you use for AVI files? You can find out using the command: gconftool-2 --get /desktop/gnome/thumbnailers/video@x-avi/command
/usr/bin/gnome-video-thumbnailer -s %s %u %o I think you might just have to add quotes are the file name in the source.
The paths (%o is replaced with the path to the output file, %i is replaced with the path to the original file) and URIs (%u is replaced with the URI to the original file) are quoted using g_shell_quote(). You could try to add a debug message to thunar-vfs-thumb.c:610, which prints the command that would be executed using g_message ("command=\"%s\"", command); Maybe this helps to locate the problem.
Moving to 0.3.2beta2.
Any news?
Resolving due to missing infos.
