Thumbnail generation fail when downloading a file
Last modified: 2012-08-13 23:37:51 UTC
When I am downloading file.avi in a folder, and open this folder in nautilus, it tries to generate a thumbnail every 2 or 3 seconds (as the file content changes), but fails (because the file is incomplete I guess). But once the file is complete, the thumbnail stays 'fail' forever. I have to 'rm -rf ~/.thumbnails/fail' and refresh with F5 to properly generate the thumbnail.
