I'm using the software that came with my Sony camcorder to extract video from
a mini DVD. It creates mpg files. I once was able to see the thumbnails...as
many others have experienced and then after downloading/installing various
video codecs the thumbnails no longer show up...I get the WMP button icon as
did others. Pasted below is the log from the file extention mpg from my
registry. Any help would be apprecitated. Also I've tried everything you
suggested earlier this year...shmedia.dll, deleting the thumbnail cahe
file..etc...

Hi,
What's the file type involved?
Are you able to preview other video files (of the same file type)?
More details would help. Meanwhile, click Start, Run and type:
regsvr32 shmedia.dll

HELP ME PLEASE!!!
Ok so I have been battling this issue for months now.
I've done my homework and found the following thread of posts
Subject: thumbnail view 10/26/2005 5:52 AM PST
By: Steve Goodrich In: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general
which is quite extensive and I thought would solve my problem...which is as
stated in several post I've made...I can no longer see pictures for my video
clips in my folders.
I have been able to see them in the past...who knows what I ended up
doing...I have looked at my registry and have followed the advice of the
above thread...but still have not solved the problem.
Please... Ramesh, your my only hope!
