Saw this recent post about switching from totem-video-thumbnailer to
ffmpegthumbnailer and receiving a massive boost of speed:

Though I should bring it to your attention here, perhaps this could be
replaced as the default. I notice that thumbnailing is very slow in Ubuntu,
and this is a massive improvement, so I think it's probably at least worth
investigation.

Just a thought,
Rich
