Nautilus is no longer able to generate thumbnails for AVI codec.

I don't know when it happened, but all the thumbnails of AVI codec videos are not able to be generated.
Other codec works fine as usual.

Do Arch maintainers remove some features from ffmpeg or ffmpegthumbnailer?
If I rename the file from "sample.avi" to "sample.avi.mp4", the thumbnail can be generated.
