Hello

totem does not show any thumbnails when opened.

If started from terminal, the error messages similar to the below
example seem to be relevant:

totem-video-thumbnailer couldn't open file 'file:///tmp/P7280064.MP4'

I can still reproduce this using the new Totem I've just updated to.

I think this would happen if you didn't have 'gst-libav' installed
(although other formats could require other plugins). I've added this
gst-libav to totem's inputs, which means it'll always be available.

It got rid of the errors in my testing.
