MPlayerThumbs for Kubuntu 0.5b

MPlayerThumbs for Kubuntu is a thumbnail generator for video files on Konqueror.

Unlike the original konqueror plugin (in my gentoo box is artsplugin-xine), it DOESNT 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 its faster than the xine plugin, since it can seek and play only a limited number of frames.

MPlayerThumbs for Kubuntu catches a random frame from 15% to 70%, checking also how contrasted is the image, and dropping bad frames.
