Hi,
I found a dirty workaround for arch:
1. install mplayer "pacman -S mplayer"
2. extract "mplayerthumbs-trinity_14.1.2-0debian12.0.0+0_amd64.deb",
link the content from opt/trinity to /opt/trinity.
3. Video thumbnails working perfect.
In the arch package system is no "mplayerthumbs-trinity"
https://scm.trinitydesktop.org/gitea/TDE/tde-packaging/src/branch/master/ar…
I think it have to be in "tde-extra". Maybe one of the tde developers
reading here can let the arch packager know that the package is missing.

My hat is off to the adventurous soul packaging for Arch. I know all too well
how that can quickly turn into a full-time job when major package changes
come. gcc 4.8 and libpng 12->14 were killers.
Check the PKGBUILD (top) for the e-mail of the person packaging TDE for Arch
and send an e-mail to see if you can have the mplayerthumbs-trinity package
added. If it can use the normal mplayer with only links needed as described
above, it's a trivial package to add.
