Re: Live Icon thumbnail for Video files

I'm sorry, but could you elaborate just a bit?

Do you mean they don't work in the preview pane?
(Organize > Layout > Preview Pane)

The Icons show in explorer views but not the actual preview?
(Organize > Folder and search Options > View tab, Advanced settings >
Uncheck 'Always show icons, never thumbnails')

Or is it something else?

Re: Live Icon thumbnail for Video files

Did you try option 2 that I suggested?

The Icons show in explorer views but not the actual preview?
(Organize > Folder and search Options > View tab, Advanced settings >
Uncheck 'Always show icons, never thumbnails')

that sounds most like what you described.

Re: Live Icon thumbnail for Video files

Sorry, but I am a bit puzzled. The only other thing I can think of is that
you have it set to another view, such as details or small icons. If it is
possible could you post a screen shot or something

Re: Live Icon thumbnail for Video files

Similar problem I have referred to in "thumbnails for video files in windows
XP". In thumbnail view my photos show the actual photo, but in thumbnail view
my videos only now show the AVI or MPG icons and not the first frame of the
movie.

Re: Live Icon thumbnail for Video files

Ditto problem. Only seems to have occured recently. Maybe is a new bug in the
system caused by a recent patch? If so hope Microsoft fixes it soon.
