Yeah, if you mean no picture preview thumbnails after the upgrade, same here. I actually have previews for vids, and the odd picture file scattered here and there, but in folders full of images, all I get is a generic JPG icon. And what's worse, when using Image Viewer and I hit F9 to show the Image Gallery at the bottom, instead of the previews I'm used to, all I get are the dark squares with red circle with a line through it like if a picture is corrupt, but these are all fine. Any ideas guys??
I had a fresh Install of 11.10
Most of the image file preview is available but no support for CR2 or NEF Images ! :confused:
When I try to select images for use in other programs there is no preview either...which really is a problem when you have over 1000 images you are working with...hope there is a fix for this
i can see Image previews with RawTherapee,
but unable to see preview in Nautilus !
I'm a KDE user and having exactly the same problem in Dolphin, the default file manager for KDE.
From a previous post. Worked for me. Hope it works for you.
1. Open file manager.
2. Edit->Preferences->Preview. Change preferences as required.
3. Close file manager and open terminal.
4. Run the following command to install the necessary packages.
5. Remove old thumbnails.Quote:
$ sudo apt-get install ffmpeg ffmpegthumbnailer gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg
6. Open the file manager and enjoy your new thumbnails!Quote:
$ rm ~/.thumbnails/fail/gnome-thumbnail-factory/*
$ rm ~/.thumbnails/normal/*
Still no preview for NEF or CR2 Files,
gnome sushi gives a preview but not Nautilus
Here is the link to the bug report.

Maybe the more personal who file there will speed up a fix. I don't have thumbnails for sony arw or canon cr2.
