Sorry for my mistake with the package name - I have gvfs version
1.8.0-0ubuntu2 from natty repository installed.

I also have to mention that Nautilus respects the settings for video
files - they are whole loaded into system memory by gvfsd-gphoto2
(uselessly) after what the memory is freed up with the only result that
Nautilus shows the default video icon (showing a cine-film) instead of
the file icon with clock signalizing that the preview is being loaded,
respecting the 100MB file limit for previews (!!). Trying that with a
3GB video file in my camera connected through USB, gvfsd-gphoto2 crashed
(?) after it loaded the video file into memory for the purpose of image
preview - I think so, because it was no longer listed in the process
list in system-monitor and the camera became unmounted in Nautilus.

Trying it with the same video stored already on my HDD, the default
video icon was displayed immediately without any use of system memory.
When I changed the file preview limit in Nautilus from 100MB to 4GB,
preview for the video file became available immediately (I only had to
move it to another folder as the preview for the original video file in
the concrete path was already fixed to be the default video icon - this
is probably another issue with Nautilus) and again, without any use of
memory - so even loading whole (video) files for the purpose of file
preview is useless and should never be done.
