I am using KDE in OpenSuse 11.1. Show previews doesn't seem to work in
Konqueror. The video files show as icons instead of the first frame of
the video. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

If you use kde4
Go to:
dolphin -> settings -> set dolphin.
General -> video thumbnails.
the same way for konqueror

I'm using mplayerthumbs.
Its description in YaST:
mplayerthumbs is a thumbnail generator for video files on Konqueror.
Unlike the original konqueror plugin, it does not depend neither on xine
nor arts, instead it uses only mplayer. You can take advantage of this
on x86_64 systems, where you can use a 32bit mplayer to load
win32codecs. To configure the location of your mplayer binary launch
mplayerthumbsconfig. Also it's faster than the xine plugin, since it can
seek and play only a limited number of frames. It catches a random frame
from 15% to 70%, checking also how contrasted is the image, and dropping
bad frames.
Works nicely.

Thanks. I installed it and it is generating the thumbs/previews now.
I just can't figure out why Konqueror in one distro has thumbs/previews,
but in another it does not.

Found the answer in an old Linux Questions thread. I needed to install
kdemultimedia3-video-xine.
