Bug Description

I have numerous video files of various video formats, for example mp4 files. Nautilus does not display thumbnails for any of these videos.

I have gone into the Nautilus preferences and set it to always display thumbnails for files smaller than 4GB. None of the video files are more than like 2 GB at most, yet none of them show a thumbnail.
