To mark this Invalid is completely wrong if you ask me. You would have to
change the dialog in Nautilus to say Don't make thumbnails for IMAGES larger
then rather then just chuck it under Other previewable files.
This very much feels like a bug to the ordinary user who has no concept of what
it
If the thumbnailer hangs, this is a problem with specific files. Wasn't there a
timeout of 30 seconds?
Anyway, you can disable thumbnail generation per mime-type in gconf. Have a
look at the comment by Sebastien:

Thumbnails are
This is realy a bug as I can't see content of the folder. Nautilius is
trying endlessly to generate thumbs for some videos and hangs in that
state. I have set limit to 10 MB, videos are 30 to 60 Megs...

Thumbnails are created for all video files, regardless of size (limit)
The limit only applies to image formats, as Nautilus does not actually
thumbnail videos (gnome-video-thumbnailer, which is just a special way
of calling Totem, does). The limit imposed by Nautilus will never apply
to videos, since it does not make sense to do so; thumbnailing a video
only renders
But still it hanged. And does not show me content of the folder making me
upset. It is making ubuntu useless and not the desktop os. As an user I expect
it to be:
a) operable (it displays my folder content!)
b) logical (when it says (in context of size) about other file types it says
about
I feel this is a bug. Previewing video files slows my systems down
immensely, and so I have to turn off previewing altogether, which causes
me to lose image thumbnails as well. Video previewing should respect
the size limit. Alternatively, video previewing should have its own set
of options
Still the case on 8.04 beta.
Just wanted to give it a little attention - given the date this bug was first
reported.

Thanks for your bug. That's not a bug, the preference limit is for
images only because you need to download the image to do a preview,
there is no need to download the video to make a preview of it. The
setting is not that clear but there is already some bugs on the topic,
no need to keep that
