No thumbnails for MP4 videos

Post by Kemal »

I wonder if I am doing something wrong as I cannot see thumbnails of MP4 files in the browser.
All other thumbnails display well (mpg, flv etc.)

In Windows Explorer mp4 thumbnails are displayed. I have K-Lide codec pack installed.

I tried to search for a solution here but there are no results for "mp4" search.

Thank you for pointing me to this older thread. From this thread I was able to find my solution for this issue:

Under "options->filelist I had to simply add mp4 to the video filter. After that the thumbnails got displayed immediately. So easy, should not be an issue to fix in the next version at all. :D
