The thumbnails contain original file modification timestamp. If file is changed, thumbnail is invalidated and recreated. If you're downloading a video using bittorrent it will be constantly changing until download is complete. Nautilus will make a thumbnail, then notice file has changed, make another thumbnail, etc. Nautilus should see whether a file is opened for writing and not try to make a thumbnail for it.
