I had a problem with thumbnailing too. As far as I remember I tried to
produce thumbnails issuing commands /usr/bin/totem-video-thumbnailer
and /usr/lib/nautilus/gst-thumbnail in the terminal. Totem worked,
gst-thumbnail did not. Then I changed gconf keys for apropriate video
formats to /usr/bin/totem-video-thumbnailer %u %o and everything worked
again. I was using gnome 2.6 then, now I'm using gnome 2.8, thumbnailing
works.
