** 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.
