Please give us a little more information.

Do you mean that the video file icons are not being set to thumbnails of the movie they contain?

Do you have the correct video codecs installed? (Can you watch the videos in Movie Player?)

In a Nautilus window, please select Edit->Preferences and select the Preview tab. Make sure that the Other Previewable Files settings are appropriate. For instance, "Show Thumbnails" should not be Never, and "Only for files smaller than" should be larger than the size of the video file you would like to see a preview for.

Thanks.
