You are welcome and is good to know that the transparency problem is fixed on Intrepid.
This is absolutely fantastic. My thanks to whoever made and contributed to this fantastic script!
I was wondering if this also works for folders?
It works perfectly for normal video files which is fine for movies, but not so much for TV shows. For example I have a battlestar galactica folder which has all the episodes. Is there a way that I can set the folder to have a thumbnail?
In Gutsy I used to be able to just drag an image to set as its folder icon, but for whatever reason in hardy they have removed the border around a thumbnail when its set as an icon.
You are welcome.
I think that there are no file manager that allow thumbnails for folders.
You could try avatar-factory that does something similar.
That is very strange, normally, the image should be moved or copied to the destination folder.
I have posted an idea on ubuntu brainstorm that is related to this application. If you like it you can vote for it. Here it is.
Sounds like a great plan to me, so I voted it up.
I have a question regarding the movie thumbnailer, though. I have a rather slow laptop, that doesn't like a lot of things running at once. Does this run constantly, looking for thumbnails everytime I open nautilus or does it look for new ones when it sees a new file and saves the thumbnail?
Sorry for the silly question.
Thanks
It look for new ones when it sees a new file. The thumbnail is saved. Actually, is the file manager (nautilus/thunar) that tells the thumbnailer to make a thumbnail when it sees a file without thumbnail. It work like any other thumbnailer. Nothing is running constantly in the background.
Sorry to keep bumping this, but it's not working for me. Is there something special the video file needs other than to be named correctly?
Edit: It seems I don't have a ~/.imdb-thumbnailer/ folder, or a config file inside of it. I tried running 'gedit ~/.imdb-thumbnailer/config' anyway, it opened a blank text editor, but wouldn't let me save what I wrote.
Should I go ahead and create the directory and file myself, or no?
