[Feature Request] Do not create thumbnail for certain filetype extensions and directories #237

Closed d8f6 closed 3 hours ago

d8f6 commented 3 hours ago

Hello, so when I download files I have a temporary file extention added to the file (.!qb from qbittorrent). I would prefer not to create thumbnails for these files until they are done being downloaded. I am unsure if there is already a way to do this by changing or removing "MimeType=" entries found in /usr/share/thumbnailers/ffmpegthumbnailer.thumbnailer. Is there already a way to do this? If so, could someone share it with me. Also, is there a way to exclude thumbnail generation based on directories? Okay, thanks.

Extra information: I am using thunar with generates thumbnails from tumbler using ffmpegthumnailer. I looked in tumblers rc file and did not see any way to do this there either (should I file a request there instead?).

It seems there is an Exclude= variable in tumbler. I think this should be handled there. Closing issue.
