Monologue continues :)

So by uninstalling certain extra gstreamer packages, now the timeout is fine 
(few seconds / video) instead of 90 secs.
So I believe the "timeout fix" assumes that the correct gstreamer package is 
missing rather than broken / unable which still makes things foobar. 

I still however have no thumbnails for these mp4s.
