Halo everyone,

after hardware failure I had to reinstall bath my back and front end. 
After re installation, I have no thumbnails at all. So I have no 
thumbnails on videos, and I have no thumbnails on recorded TV shows. I 
presume, that I miss some library, or script, which generates 
thumbnails, but I do not know, what is wrong.
As usual, I looked to the log, but I found just:

2012-01-12 11:02:44.024 Preview Error: Run() cannot generate preview 
locally for: '/srv/mythtv/default/1204_20120112092500.mpg'

Even when I switch debug output on, I can not see anything more detailed.

I am runing OpenSuSE 12.1, mythtv is 0.24.1 installed from RPM in 
following packages:

mythvideo-0_24-0.24.1-6.2.i586
mythtv-0_24-setup-0.24.1-6.2.i586
mythtv-0_24-base-themes-0.24.1-6.2.noarch
mythweb-0_24-0.24-2.2.noarch
mythtv-0_24-docs-0.24.1-6.2.i586
mythtv-0_24-backend-0.24.1-6.2.i586
mythtv-0_24-common-0.24.1-6.2.i586
libmyth-0_24-0.24.1-6.2.i586

I was trying to install all needed packages, but no success. I wonder, 
what I miss. Can someonme help?

Looking forward to hear from you soon.
