Ahmed can you please supply some more detailed information on where the file is being downloaded from so we can replicate exactly as you have.
I was using Kget to download a video, and Dolphin crashed while generating the thumbnail for this video. I tried to reproduce the same crash, but it did not happen again. Anyway, I found a video that is corrupted during downloading at the same folder, so maybe that is the cause of the crash. I am not quite sure.
I have just tested kget with Big Buck Bunny mp4 videos and I cannot reproduce a crash in Dolphin.
It is mostly related to the corrupted video file I downloaded before. Anyway, it is not a bug with Dolphin. Sorry about that, and thanks for your patient.
