I had system problems and I decided to do a fresh install and I could only save my home folder and be sure that my system worked. Ever since my new videos never had thumbnails. Is there any way to make sure they do have thumbnails for easy browsing.

I'm running 64-bit Debian testing Xfce and can't get Thunar to generate thumbnails for video-files in ogg-format. It works for avi, mp4, flv, etc. I have thunar-thumbnailer and ffmpegthumbnailer installed.

For more information in only nautilus I get 3 thumbnails of three flv videos but rest flv and others doesn't show up.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a Panasonic G1 digital camera this outputs raw files in Panasonic's own format (suffix .rw2). UfRaw and RawTherapee can both read these so I can work on them in ubuntu (though ufraw displays a very overexposed image at first). f-spot has problems and displays a funny pinkish mess.
Can I get F-spot to display .rw2 thumbnails?
I would actually like to get Gnome to be able to display panasonic raw thumbnails as well. Is this possible?
As an aside it would be one in the eye for windoz as Panasonic have not released a codec for XP, only for Vista and 7 (and it seams to have a nasty hook in it according to dp review)
I have a 3TB home server storing all my files and a mix of XP, Vista & Ubuntu clients on a Gigabit network. When I access a folder with JPEG photos on the XP or Vista machines and I have them set to display thumbnails that is exactly what I get. The thumbnails load nice and fast. When I access the same folders on the Ubuntu machines with "icon view" it only displays a black icon that says "JPG" but if I copy that folder over to a local drive on the Ubuntu machines then the thumbs display just fine. Does anyone have any idea how to change this on the Ubuntu machines so they load thumbnails for networked photos as well?

View 6 Replies View RelatedSM player works yes, but how do i get the thumbnail previews. I did a fresh install of opensuse, i installed the updates they Yast told me to. I followed the guide precisely this time, using the command line method and encountered some problems. 4 files, asked to be broken or use obsolete at the point where i have to do the switch to packman repository. I chose use obsolete cuz i didn't want to break anything. When i tried to set an mkv to open in SMplayer the optionw asn't there, only banshee and totem. I opened Yast and it told me to install opensuse codec installer and another file can't remember) which i did. The option to open files in SMplayer, Xine etc came up then.
I'd like to get the thumbnails and I'd like to see Totem work as well. I know i don't need to, but considering that i downloaded the neccesary codecs, i expect it to work :/ or am i wrong with that assumption On a totally unrelated note, is there a way to increase the resolution of the bootloader? i'd like to be 1920x1200 to full my screen
When I open Thunar, I can see thumbnails of jpegs, but notfor video,or document files. I've got the Thumbnailers package installed as part of XFCE Goodies,nd also ffmpegthumbnailers (? I think, I'm at work so can't check). I've looked for a setting to change, but can't see anything relevant. previous installations have allowed me to have beautiful thumnail icon

Totem in 11.3 uses Gstreamer, and i believe i have all gstreamer plugins installed, good, bad, ugly, base etc. Also thumbnails won't show. Reason i want to use Totem? cuz it's integrated well with Gnome
THere's also this issue where everything i try to play wants to be played with banshee, how do i stop that? i tried going into Preferred applications and put it on custom, but i can't differentiate music and video, there's just a multimedia option.
I would like to have music autplayed with Banshee, and Video autoplayed with SMplayer without having to go through the right click, play with option :/
Full screen flash is aproblem in 11.3 64 bit just as it ALWAYS is in most distros i tried *sigh* there's stuttering, and i can't scroll through the video ideally.
For the sake of saving spack i have a non multimedia related question. How do i handle nzbs? in windows i use sabnzb which is cross platform, but their is only a Fedora RPM meaning i'll have to compile it for opensuse which i have NO Idea how to do. Alternative NZB handlers i can't find in the regular repositories or webpin.
I have a problem with nautilus thumbnails since a few days. I checked they are indeed generated in .thumbnails, but all I got in nautilus is the "loading.." icon instead of the thumbnail, for all kind of files (pdf, image, video..) + a high cpu load.
I really don't see what to look at here, didn't found any trace of error in several logs/debug tool like gdb (and btw does nautilus have log abilities?)
I don't know which change could have triggered this (it used to work fine), maybe adding the i386 compatibilty with "dpkg --add-architecture i386" ? (I did this a few days ago in order to install acrobat reader)
Also I've been copying all of the home folder files from my previous ubuntu account to the new debian one, maybe I broke something in the process ?
hint0: thumbnails are displayed fine under thunar

I just installed KDE and I had 2 minor problems with Konqueror:
1) Every time I emptying the trash, I'm getting the error message: "The file or folder /...path here.../.Trash-1000/files/...filename here does not exist.". Seems like I had deleted this file, and before emptying the trash, I deleted somehow this file outside Debian installation (probably from a live cd). Other than that, trash is working OK. I'm just wondering if there's a way to get rid of the error message. (Of course emptying the trash from command line, doesn't brings any message).
2) Konqueror stopped displaying thumbnails of JPGs, PNGs etc. (with the exception of Photobook view, which is not very convenient for large number of photos).
I bypassed this problem, installing d3lphin (since dolphin is not available for lenny), and browsing the photo catalogs with it.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI cannot get AVI videos to play with the Totem movie player that comes bundled with Ubuntu 8.04 on the Dell Mini 9. I keep getting: "Could not determine type of stream." Randomly, one or two of the dozen or so videos on my SD card will work, but most will not. This is very frustrating because all the videos I download are always in AVI format.
I tried used the synaptic package manager find an alternative player and tried MPlayer, but that didn't do anything. I'd just get a blank screen on everything. Using the tutorial in this forum, I got GNOME Mplayer, which also didn't work, but even a video that worked with Totem would only play audio with GNOME Mplayer.
I looked in the repository for video codec updates but didn't see any. What do I do? Is there like a Winamp for Linux? This is a total bummer. I just want to play AVI files that are so commonly used for video.
I'm trying to find a program where I can edit some hd mkv files. I want to cut pieces of them out and put them together. I was using avidemux but when I went to save it again it said I needed the start point to be a keyframe. It allowed me to save it as an avi, but the color was distorted. I am fine with using avidemux if I can get around this keyframe problem.

On past Thursday i decided to install ubuntu on my laptop and i did it . It is light and healthy (ha ha). Any way, I would like to play AVI, MKV, RMVB, and MP4 videos but i couldn't. I tried a lot of debian packages and drives (i.e. files with .deb extension) but no result except installing RealPlay that i am using it to play mp3 files only.
can you give me some packages to play those files. (I can't connect my laptop to Internet for the time being). In addition, I have Huawei E1750 USB Modem but the system does not recogize it. Is there any way to play those videos and surf the net using the modem in UBUNTU 10.04 LTS.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to convert flv videos to MP4 so that I can load them onto my iPod Classic 160 G (video).
So far no program has successfully converted an flv file to a usable mp4.I've tried Avidemux (both gtk and qt), Kdenlive, WinFF, Mobile Media Converter, DownloadHelper (FireFox addon) Tragtor and of course the King of them all- FFMPEG. Not one of the previously mentioned programs has successfully and consistently converted an FLV to mp4 for my ipod.
It could be that I'm doing something wrong with FFMPEG or don't have the correct codecs (whatever the heck they are?!) installed or that I voted for McGovern in '68. The "help" from FFMPEG both IRC and their obnoxious email list is beyond deplorable.
Anyway, I need to know a reliable and consistent way to turn flv or any other videos into an MP4 format that will run on my iPod. The program must reside on my machine and not some online converter service. If I have to use FFMPEG (which I understand most programs use as their core) I need to know how to do it....and for God's sake don't tell me to read the online documentation at FFMPEG..
My Dad who I have just gotten on to Ubuntu is wanting to burn some some avi videos onto a DVD, but wants them in a DVD format though so that he can play them on any type of dvd player.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have some 10hrs videos with around 6GB in size. Unfortunately avidemux2_cli runs into problems copying certain parts of it into an output file (frames get blur).
So I tried ffmpeg, but even if I use the sameq switch (same quality as source video), the output video is not a 1:1 copy of the source video. In fact the output video is encoded again (and sound is not as in the source video) and that takes ages against a copy activity by avidemux. Is there any other cli program for simply copying parts out of videos?
I've got an eeepc 1101ha and have installed the latest ubuntu, 10.10, but i can't watch any videos!

The sound card works properly with any other application, such as Amarok, but not with flash videos and my hardware is mostly Intel witch is linux-friendly from what I know, so I guess that it isn't a driver problem.

I am trying to combine two videos into one file, so that I can have them playing side by side and in sync.Basically they are two angles of the same thing, and I want to be able to demonstrate both at once. The files are completely different formats right now (MPEG-2 and h.264), but I could convert them. Is there any way to do this, or a way I could have them both play in sync even if I can't combine them?
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've seen posts with similar titles on these forums, but I know nothing about the plethora of codes out there and all those thread seem to be way over my head. I've installed ffmpeg (an unrestricted version) but I can't convert m4a audio files to mp3 audio files. I installed a package called 'libavcodec52' from synaptic because it came up in the search results for 'm4a' and its description said something about m4a and ffmpeg but still no luck..
