Vista Ultimate Dream Scene

I have downloaded and installed all the Dream Scene content from the Vista
Updates. They all work great, look great... problem I am having, and its not
really a huge deal, but I have not icon for one of the clips. Every other
clip has a thumbnail for it when I go to change Dream Scene Backgrounds, but
the raindrops on the puddle clip has no thumbnail. Is there a way to make the
Dream Scene chooser display the icon/thumbnail for just that one clip? The
other created as they downloaded and installed, or when I ran them for the
first time. This single clip has never thumbnailed.

Thanks!

That vid8898.mpg has always had that problem. Not sure what causes this
behavior, but it simply refuses to display the thumbnail properly.

Re: Vista Ultimate Dream Scene

This has to do with how thumbnails are created in Windows Vista.
For a long and technical answer, see this blog entry:

Hope that helps!
