Do you have an example file that we can use that you had issues with? That way we can test with the exact same information. What method was used to download the file, was it downloaded via FTP, HTTP, BitTorrent, etc?

Mostly just BitTorrent and .mkv files With SFTP I get periodic spikes (every 2 seconds or so) up to 20% usage on a single core on my Ryzen 3600. BitTorrent always maxes out a core. Copying a video file from one disk to another also causes this, but it's not as bad as BitTorrent. Still, creating the thumbnail uses more of the CPU than the actual copying, or anything else on my system. Does not happen with .mp4 files (Dolphin doesn't create thumbnails for incomplete .mp4 files). Converting (re-encoding) an .mp4 to an .mkv with ffmpeg also causes thumbnail.so to use a lot of CPU, but this is less noticeable because ffmpeg already almost maxes out all the cores. Another report of the same or a similar bug (see comments) https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=376676 I did a quick search but couldn't find any (legal) videos to download via torrent as mkv. They were all mp4 or webm. Are you able to supply a legal link to content that I can test with? Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days.
