** Description changed:
Setting Nautilus preferences for previews to generate thumbnails only
for files smaller than X does not have any effect on non-images.
For example, if I set in Nautilus preferences to show thumbnails only
for files smaller than 10 MB. Then Nautilus generates thumbnails only
for images smaller than 10 MB -- but not for any other file type.
Nautilus still generates thumbnails for non-images, such as videos or
pdf files, regardless of their file size.
This is a huge problem for users who have lots of big sized video files
and don't want them to get thumbnailed, but want to keep thumbnailing
for pictures.
+
+ It gets especially annoying when downloading huge video files. Then the
+ thumbnailing process goes on and on unless the file has finished
+ downloading. As a user I feel forced to switch off thumbnailing
+ completely as Nautilus fails to obey what is being set in the
+ preferences.
** Summary changed:
- Nautilus does not obey Previews preferences for files other than pictures
+ Nautilus does not obey Previews preferences for non-images
