I am currently using Ubuntu 10.04 and is stuck in enabling RW2 thumbnails under Nautilus. I have successfully installed "ufraw" and "gimp-ufraw" packages. They are tested to be working. how to get the thumbnails out when exploring a directory? The icon appears like a black screen at the moment.
View 3 RepliesI tried to search about this from google and opensuse forums but didn't find any help, so I'm starting this topic.I just updated to OpenSUSE 11.1 with newest gnome and default kernel. The problem is, I don't have video thumbnails any more in nautilus. If I recall correctly, in 11.0 I had them with totem-xine, but now I can't find it in any repos. Added some additional repositories, but still nothing.
If there is not totem-xine available, how to get video thumbnails, I mean like generating automatically every time I open a folder with video files in it.
I 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 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 ?

Last night I had to re-install Ubuntu. Previously, the header of the file manager had been configured up with the three buttons on the right for icon/list/compact view (see 1st image below), whilst since re-installing, they appear with the drop-down menu instead (as per the 2nd image). How do you change between these two formats? My preference is for the first of these.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently installed Deluge 1.2.0 from the following PPA:[URL]I using this on two different Linux computers. One is running Linux Mint 8 and the other is running Ubuntu Netbook Remix 9.10. The first time on either computer when I enable WebUI in the Deluge GUI it works fine.

Rebooting or reinstalling Deluge seems to have no effect.Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi. I work with large image files. On my ubuntu laptop, the 20 MB files take forever to form the little preview thumbnail icons on the desktop, and everything freezes up until they generate.
I'm poking around my preferences and options, but I can't seem to find a way to tell Ubuntu that I don't want it to form preview icons. Is there some way to turn them off?
Recently due to partitioning and a power failure Ive had to now copy all my backup movies etc. back onto ubuntu as they are corrupted. At the moment the thumbnails of the movies are the generic orange media image and when I replace it with the backup movie, across to ubuntu and refresh the browser, the thumbnail stays the same i.e. it doesn't show a small screen cap of the movie. Is there a way to 'refresh' them properly as it were? I am running Ubuntu 10.10.

View 9 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to change my current nautilus window to have sudo capabilities,? e.g. to delete locked files. It may be lazy but if it takes a lot of navigation then it would be handy to somehow activate sudo from the open window without the terminal command (gksudo nautilus) which always begins at root.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have Ubuntu 9.10, and writing video files to a mounted disk is slow. The reason is every time the buffer is flushed to disk, Ubuntu starts making a new video thumbnail for the file.If I skip the first block that has the RIFF data, then Ubuntu doesn't realize it's a video, and the write speed is about doubled. Then I can write the RIFF data at the end of the transfer (in the appropriate place in the file).I have tried setting an exclusive flock on the file while writing; however, that does not prevent Ubuntu from reading the file while it's being written and generating thumbnails.

Using Ubuntu 10.04 64bit (Gnome)
Im using Firefox 3.6.12, and Ubuntu 10.10 When I go to this page for example:[URL].. and try to open third screenshot in first row... when I click on it, it is zooming in very slowly, and when I press X to exit it.. Firefox becomes unusable for about 5-10 seconds, and then starts to zoom-out the image, very slowly.I have this issue on every site that has big images to zoom, when I say big.I do not have issue with lets say 1600*1200 pixels, but I do with 2500*1600 pixels. My configuration : AMD Athlon 64 bit 3000+; Ati Radeon X600, 2GB DDR2. I have tested in all other browsers on my Ubuntu and its working fine. I have tried safe mode, I have tried new profile... I have tried latest Minefield beta. zooming is very slow everywhere I have tried live CDs Fedora 14, Ubuntu 10.04, Ubuntu 10.10 and all of them have this issue with Firefox. I have tried disabling Compiz... not helping, I have tried disabling Pango in bashrc file, not helping. Firefox on Windows is working fine, and everything else except Firefox is working fine on Ubuntu

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 3 Replies View RelatedWhen I open Thunar, I can see thumbnails of jpegs, but not for video, pdf or document files.

I've looked for a setting to change, but can't see anything relevant. Previous installations have allowed me to have beautiful thumnail icons.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a WebDAV server at home with at folder that I want to mount on my Ubuntu computer at work over the Internet. Everything works fine if I just use dav://user@server:port in Nautilus so I tried adding it to fstab (using davfs2) and managed to get it to mount fine.
The problem is that when mounted using fstab Nautilus thinks that it is a lokal folder and downloads images and movies to create thumbnails/previews, something that it doesn't do when just using dav://. This uses a lot of bandwith everytime I'm trying to access a folder with any media. I'm wondering if there is any way to exclude my entire /media/nas folder from showing thumbnails?
Apparently, Ubuntu (and Xubuntu) keep copies of all thumbnails ever loaded, cached in ~/.thumbnails. To me, this is creepy and can be bad from a security standpoint. Is there any way to have all thumbnails loaded on-the-fly, but not to have them ever cached on disk? I tried symlinking ~/.thumbnails to /dev/null, but this disabled thumbnails entirely.

Does anyone know how I can move the location bar in nautilus up by the toolbar, as shown by this pic:
http://i39.tinypic.com/2qdsyll.jpg
I'd rather not have to download the source of nautilus and edit the code / compile it myself.
By the way, a guy on Ubuntu Forums thought this was a mockup. It's not. It's the regular version of Nautilus, only I removed some toolbar buttons through the /usr/share/nautilus/ui xml files.
I just want the location bar next to the toolbar to conserve screen space, and be a bit more like Finder.
converting videos to 3gp format.
i have installed transmaggedon software but it fails to convert because quicktime muxer plugin is not installed.
This plugin is not available in the repositories.
How can i get this video converter to work or what else can i do to be able to convert videos to 3gp format?
Any chances the UbuntuOne website will have thumbnails in the future?
