On Arch Linux running Dolphin 25.08.0 the video preview does not change while I hover over the file, but it does when I click on the file.

Yes I also observed this yesterday when I filed this bugreport, however I noticed it's so random, that I don't think the click is related so that's why I didn't wanted to mix it in here cause more (possibly misleading) info can cause the bug fixing progress slower (remember: less is always more) Cause sometimes it truly generates on click, sometimes not, sometimes it quickly changes the thumbnail when hovering off of the video, and it appears for like 100ms, so it's very quick - the underlying engine got broken. Issue seems fixed, as I'm unable to reproduce this issue anymore as of: Operating System: Kubuntu 25.10 KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.19.0 Qt Version: 6.9.2 Kernel Version: 6.17.0-5-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-3470 CPU @ 3.20GHz Memory: 16 GiB of RAM (15.6 GiB usable) Graphics Processor: Quadro K620 Manufacturer: FUJITSU Product Name: ESPRIMO E510 closing ticket. On my system the bug persists with certain video files.

Exit Dolphin and remove thumbnails cache by: rm -rdf ~/.cache/thumbnails/ Then launch Dolphin and see if it worked. Perhaps for you those old thumbnails are still there from the "bugged era" Thanks. Your steps have solved the bug with some files, but others are still without animated preview. (In reply to Patrick Silva from comment #6) > Thanks.

Yepp, you're right, I also observed the same behavior, and closing and reopening Dolphin will make the exact same video to start animating. Regressed bug. Reopening the ticket. Thanks for your feedback :) Since ffmpegthumbs strictly interacts with Dolphin, I also redirected this to Dolphin department, cause ffmpegthumbs seems a completely unassigned channel. *** Bug 501552 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** |
