I downloaded a few videos with yt-dlp, had it embed the thumbnails, but what do I need to do to have Thunar actually use these thumbnails?

I’m on EndeavourOS, tumbler is installed, as is ffmpegthumbnailer and atomicparsley. Though the images have also been embedded just fine even before I installed the latter.

VLC shows the correct thumbnail image when looking at the media properties/informations, so it’s definitely there.

I feel like I’m missing something super obvious

      It’s EndeavourOS, ffmpegthumbnailer was installed per default. I updated the post just now, seeing how it lacked relevant info

        What permissions are on ~/.thumbnails? It has been some time since I have used Thunar or an Arch-based system but I recall having a problem like this before… after that, I’m out of ideas.
