i am having a problem with my thumbnails for video files such as avi mpeg and divx. The thumbnails will not show the preview of the movie it just shows the default image of the software used to view the file. How can i fix this small issue

If I remember rightly, even when I set VLC as the default player for these files, I still got the thumbnail, I get the traffic cone if the file is incomplete (for example, a download still in progress)
