[Bug 890059] Re: digikam doesn't create thumbnails of video files

[Achim Bohnet]

1) a correction:  ffmpegthumbs does work too!   Verified precise + kde sc 4.9.2 backport + digikam 2.6
    as this pkg in part of kdemultimedia I assume it's the better choice.  Last kffmpegthumbnailer release was Jan 2010

2) @hvdwolf: mp4 is AFAIU a restricted format.  So make sure you have the libavcodec-extra* pkg installed.  If it's allowed in your
   country install kubuntu-restricted-extras

   Try to install ffmpegthumbnailer pkg and test if you can create a
thumbnail:

      ffmpegthumbnailer -i /path/to/your/file.mp4 -o test.png
      kde-open test.png
