May be a problem with the version of whatever package is extracting the 
thumbnails (imagemagick, mjpegtools?).   I'm not really sure.   All I 
know, is I finally (after much tribulation) got this stuff working under 
MythBurn and now it seems (though it's not much tested yet) to be also 
working under MythArchive w/ SVN MythTV.

Here are some of the key package versions I noted (these are Gentoo 
packages, but I imagine the version are decipherable):

media-video/ffmpeg-0.4.9_p20051216 *
media-gfx/imagemagick-6.2.4.2-r1 *
dev-python/imaging-1.1.5 *
media-video/mjpegtools-1.8.0-r1 *
media-video/transcode-0.6.14-r3 *
app-cdr/cdrtools-2.01 *

Hope that might help you or someone else trying to get MythBurn/Archive 
working.
