[Bug 1530706] Re: Gallery fails to thumbnail .mkv file and media player won't play it

 

** Description changed:

  I'm having trouble playing a rather large file (954.6 MB). Upon
  selecting the gallery for playing, it freezes and creates a qt_temp file
  and that eventually grows to the same size as the original file. After
  that the video appears in the gallery, but no thumbnail is generated,
  and when trying to play it, the media player app opens, showing a black
  screen and the play controls at 00:00 TC. No video plays.
  
  Release: Ubuntu 15.04
+ OTA 8.5 (BQ stable)
