when I freshly installed 10.10 on release date my AVI files were showing thumbnail previews fine as I had pretty much every AVI with a thumbnail to it.
Got some more AVI files today and now they are all just a blank icon (the standard film strip one). Anyone know a way I can fix this?
I have this bkl-orbiter daemon running for something that apparently needs it (wacom drivers maybe).
It created a "bkl-thumbnail" home dir and has been caching image thumbnails.
Any way to keep it from doing that? Or find out why it's doing it?
I have just installed suse 11.3 and I have a problem in previewing images. Dolphin does preview the images, but they look corrupted. When I point with the mouse, images are shown perfectly on the information area on the right. I found that as I increase the preview size from the default 64 pixels to the maximum 256 pixels, most of the images are previewed correctly, but will only have 3 images per row

Is there a way to enable scrolling to move onto the next slide? i.e. scrolling down or up w/ mouse button only moves the canvas up/down rather than proceed to the next slide (which requires a Page Up/Dn). Additionally, is there a view similar to ppt that the left side of the screen has thumbnails which u can scroll up and down w/ ur mouse wheel or the up/dn arrow?
Kernel 2.6.21.5, Slackware 12.0Mozilla Thunderbird 2.0.0.4I have just typed, using a GUI mail client (or the graphical front end of a mail client) the text of a letter and am about to send it. Before I do so, I'd like to see how the letter will look to the recipient. But I can't find anything similar to a 'Preview' button. The client I use is Thunderbird. What do users of mail clients (graphical) do in a similar situation? I mean "to preview", when writing. Form among all mail clients, many must share the same features.

Still I can't see any previews. I am trying to look at the icons inside usrshareicons but all I get is a little icon that looks like piece of paper with an analog clock on it.I gotta see the images without having to open image viewer every time.
Pretty simple same as the title.I enabled them but I dont know out to disable them.

Edit: In all the threads about it, the selection Extras>Window Previews wasn't required. Selecting this under compiz-settings-manager worked for me.

NOTE! To use previews you need to activate KDE Compability in compiz settings manager and under KDE Compability check "Support Plasma Thumbnails". (Alternatively you can use kwin as window manager instead of compiz. That will give you previews for minimized windows as well.)
How is this done? I have CompizConfig Settings Manager and I can't find kde anywhere.

Just wondering why Kubuntu 10.10 has a file manager that by default doesn't show the previews of video files? Or did I do something wrong during the install? Does extra software need to be installed to view video files as thumbnails in Dolphin? Or, am I doing something wrong and everyone else who uses Dolphin after installing Kubuntu gets thumbnail previews of their video files? See the attached picture showing a preview of a graphics file. Maybe I'm expecting too much because Nautilus (in Ubuntu), Thunar (in Xubuntu) and Windows Explorer (Win XP/Vista/7) all show thumbnail previews of video files by default.

Is anyone aware of an app that previews video files, i.e. by showing thumbnails, with or without an embedded player?
Running KDE4, the preview setting in Dolphin is very, very slow to render usable icons (even on my reasonably fast / beefy system) and I'm wondering if there isn't something better than the preview modes of file managers in general.
I STFW already and couldn't find anything - there are plenty of picture viewers and plenty of video players, but I couldn't find any video previewers. The closest thing seems to be mplayerthumbs, but if I'm not mistaken, that's just the preview mode built in to Dolphin.
I have this little problem: when I open a folder with images from my network drive, I can't see the previews of the files.If the folder is on the local drive no issues, but with the remote one... no luck.I checked around for a solution, without results.. do you know if there is a solution for this little issue
View 4 Replies View RelatedI few weeks ago DockbarX upgraded tyo 0.43, and since then it hasn't worked at all; not just no window previews, but no icons for open applications - absolutely nothing. This also applies when there's an applet in a panel, not just AWN. I've been through the forums, tried going into Compiz Settings and unchecking, then rechecking KDE Compatibility etc, but it does nothing. Edot - installed awn-applet-dockbarx and gnome-dockbarx-applet from Synaptic but it doesn't help.

View 1 Replies View RelatedWhen I use any application to upload an image, the dialogue box opens for me to select my file, but I can't view my images as thumbnails. Instead it reverts to List view and displays the columns with the file name, last modified etc data. This is very frustrating when dealing with images. I'm a photographer and handle many hundreds of images.

I had been browsing the web for about an hour and had opened some image files from my drive.HOLY CRAP! I had over 2000 thumbnails in that directory! Every time an image is displayed, a thumbnail of it is created? Really? Seriously, I don't care what the reason behind this "feature" is, how do I stop it? It is simply unnecessary and a waste of disk space.

View 14 Replies View RelatedWhen using file preview mode in konqueror within a folder with movies the system automatically generates snapshots with an app called "kffmpegthumbnailer" (10% into the movies). Say I'd like to create my own thumbnails for files that do not get a good representation automatically, where do I put these thumbnails?Apparently Konqueror uses the folder "~/.thumbnails" as a cache storage. (if this is deleted, all thumbnail previews are regenerated). But when I try to supply my own thumbnail into this directory, it won't get used, instead a default one gets generated (even though the thumbnail type, size and name are identical).
How can I trick the cache functionality into using my own prepared samples instead of generating them. I would have thought there was a logical override, for example by supplying your own ".thumbnail" folder for files you'd like more control over, but this does not seem to be the case.
At some point after one of the many updates I do to my system, I seem to have lost the ability to preview myself on cam. Simply put, software like CamStream and Cheese just give me a black screen when I open it up. So, I cant see how I look on cam and what's in or out of the shot. If I tell Cheese or Camstream to capture a still, there is no problem. In fact, that is the only way I can determine what the camera is seeing of me and my background.
The only "solution" is to either have Cheese takke my pic and determine from there (as just mentioned), or go on a video chat room and have it use my camera to give me a real-time look at what the camera is aimed to. As someone who creates webcam videos for upload, and sometimes needs to move the camera while still live, this is not convenient so I hope to fix it.
Here are the command line outputs Im getting:
Cheese:
Code:
** (cheese:3704): WARNING **: could not generate thumbnail for /home/lixen69y2k/Webcam/2010-08-25-101226.ogv (video/ogg)

Could not grab image (select timeout): Resource temporarily unavailable.Seems that GUVCview gives me the best articulation of what the problem is.

after googling around there doesnt seem to be a fix for this its madness
