Interesting.  Any corresponding errors in your Apache error_log?

What is the content of your IMG tags for the thumbnails? Should be
something similar to:

<img src="http://mythtv.com/tv/get_pixmap/backend/1032/1250344800/100/75/79/1032_20090815080000.mpg.100x75x79.png"
width="100" height="75">

Try placing the URI of the IMG tag into your browser's address bar and
see what kind of output you get (if any).
