Description Brian Kerrick Nickel 2003-06-01 04:59:30 UTC
When the thumbnailer tries handling an incomplete AVI, it just sits there
doing nothing.
As Totem can run incomplete AVIs (for the most part), it should either A)
Use a different method for incomplete files or B) postpone thumbnailing
'til a later time.
In either case, adding a NICE value to the thumbnailer would help, as an
active thumbnailer seriously interferes with playback.
Comment 1 Bastien Nocera 2003-06-01 11:21:52 UTC
These problems are related to the way the thumbnailing system works.
Reassigning to libgnomeui.
Comment 2 Brian Kerrick Nickel 2005-02-12 19:39:57 UTC
Maybe a 1 second delay (or some other arbitrary amount of time) should be
enforced after a file has been marked as having been altered.
Comment 3 Bastien Nocera 2006-04-10 17:18:39 UTC
This should already work. Fix is in nautilus 2.11.1

        * libnautilus-private/nautilus-thumbnails.c:
        (thumbnail_thread_start):
        Don't try to thumbnail files which have been modified in the
        last few seconds to avoid constantly re-thumbnailing them.
        Current cool-off period is three seconds. Fixes bug #107418.
