Nautilus video thumbnails without totem

I've removed totem and installed VLC instead. Now video files thumbnails are gone. Is there any way to get thumbnails back without reinstalling totem?

I know I can have both totem and VLC, but I really don't want to have more soft than I need :)

• Open file manager and go to Edit -> Preferences -> Preview. Change preferences as required. Then close file manager and open terminal. Run the following command to install the necessary packages.

  sudo apt-get install ffmpeg ffmpegthumbnailer gstreamer0.10-ffmpeg

  Then remove the old thumbnails

  rm ~/.thumbnails/fail/gnome-thumbnail-factory/*
  rm ~/.thumbnails/normal/*
  

  Open the file manager and enjoy your new thumbnails!
