Just upgraded to the A74 and was getting annoyed by having to open premiere every time I want to see a clip until I searched for this. You're the best Matt!
@@whoismatt Do you think, this is why my Premier Pro 2021 doesn't recognize this files as well? I'm stuck here without being able to edit any footage from my 7slll. Please help. Thanks in advance Matt.
You are a lifesaver Matt! I just played back my first 10 bit video from my new A7IV and was disappointed in choppy playback in VLC (my longtime player) --- but with your help in this video - now my workflow is saved!! Thank you!!!
Matt. You are a genius. Not only did you fix something that has been bugging me since I got this new PC last year, but you also present in a fast yet easy to understand way. And I should know. I'm a media trainer, who teaches people presentation et cetera. Anyway, I rarely do endorsements but you are absolutely brilliant. Thank you very much. Charles.
Matt I cant thank you enough for making these videos. You have made the whole process of switching to Sony so easy and straight forward. Your attention to detail and the amount of effort you put in is really appreciated.
This video saved me! Got the A7s iii and this was driving me nuts. Fellow UA-camr here... last question, how in the world do I prevent my camera from making multiple files for every clip? It is making an extracted audio file, as well as an XLM document for every clip after the MP4. Any help would be amazing if you knew how to just have it make the solo mp4 file. Thanks man!
Not sure about that extracted audio file, but the XLM document you’re referring to contains clip metadata that can be read by sony’s catalyst browse software
And if I don't want to use Sony's Catalyst Browse software? What is the answer to his question. I would also like to get rid of XLM files (I do not use catalyst browse)@@whoismatt
@@whoismatt Hello sir. Just wanted to tell you that when I tried installing Icaros(latest version), windows gave a warning that it can be harmful for PC. I just wanted to ask is it actually safe???
For anyone having troubles finding the right file to download, those bunch of numbers mean something. Look for mpv-x86_64-v3 where x86 is your processor type (intel or amd) and 64 stands for 64bit which refers to the OS (windows). That is probably what you will need. The rest of the numbers represent version, higher should be better. The other files are for other processors and OS architectures.
You are the ONLY person anyone should trust on this platform to find THE ABSOLUTE BEST CHOICE for getting a particular problem fixed, WE LOVE YOU FOR THAT MY MAN. - KEEP IT UP! 👍👑
God bless you dude! I tried a different software called Bable or something, and it took forever to refresh in each folder. But this Icaros program is so much faster. Thanks again!
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I just got a S5ii and I was super disappointed trying to guess which clips were the ones I needed for a certain video. This was very helpful and I appreciate the step by step guides.
Solution: its not called “stable” anymore. It is now named “release” Click on the “release” folder and you can either download the newest version at the top or scroll down and download the same version that he downloaded on screen 👍 worked for me
Thanks for this!!! MPV Player still player super choppy my canon clog3 footage, but Pot Player plays them smoothly!! Never heard of that player! Thanks again!
Got to this video via a google search of "view canon 10 bit log thumbnail windows" after over TWO YEARS of suffering and trying different methods. Thanks, Matt! The crazy thing is I already follow your channel but never happened upon this specific video before 🤦♂
Matt, thank you! This helped BIGTIME, my man! Seriously. Being able to see my clips for renaming/tagging prior to editing is so valuable, and I can't believe MPV plays back my 4K 10-bit ProRes footage in legit REAL-TIME. Thank you!
thanks man it worked! at first i thought the files i was downloading were corrupt but my curiosity got the better of me and i googled the file name and it came up to a reddit post about how you need a special player to play it. i searched how to play these files and i came across your video. you're awesome!

You are the man! I LOVE YOU! I spent hours frustrated with this issue and watched tons of worthless videos and finally, thank GOD, I found you! God bless you brother!
Thank you so much! This was bugging me for so long, if I had only searched for this problem earlier, I could have resolved it in five minutes. Seriously, thanks a bunch.
I had figured out a player for the files but not the thumbnails, you sir are a absolute legend! I've been watching your videos for a while now, just want to say thank you for all that you do! I'm a fellow wedding filmmaker too! : )
Man! You just save my life... I had to organize the files of a video shooting with 4 actors in last than a hour, and I couldn't make the thumbnails from the Sony a7 IV work at all. Thank you so much.
There was face you made when the video started playing back and it perfectly conveys exactly how I felt within minuets of finding, watching , and listening to this God send of a video. Thank you so much!!! Subscribing based solely on the concise delivery of this video.
are you kidding me.... are you kidding me I have been dealing with this for months. This will save me a landfills worth of frustration. I truly can thank you enough.
First off, how the heck did you figure all this out? Seriously, without a step by step, I would've never know where to start. Second, thank you! Massive help.
Thank you so much! I was having a hard time figuring this out and had resorted to only using my iPad to edit my 10 bit footage! Now i'm back on the PC thanks to this video!
I have had to come back to this video time and time again after accidentally deleting the programs numerous times. I am well acquainted now, thank you so so much.
OMG Dude.. I am searching this thing for 5days. I also corrupt my windows 10 once for this reason by trying other methods and softwares. But finally this one is worked perfectly. Thanks a lot. One more thing if you wanna choose any different media player please don't go for mpv player, it's not so convenient for me. You can go for kmplayer, gom player. These can easily plays the 10-bit files.
You are a life saver! I was struggling with thumbnail issue very badly. I used to convert all the videos using Da vinci resolve so it shows thumbnail. Thank you soo much❤ Love from India
Dude you're the best man. I got the Canon R5 and anytime I shoot b-roll pretty much for the last I don't know 4 years there are no thumbnails so it takes me hours and sometimes days just to name everything
This still works in late 2024! I just spent about 12 hours trying to fix what I thought was a laptop issue. Turns out it was just VLC. Whew! I've never been happy with the 'traffic cone' thumbnails and now I don't have to put up with them any more. Thanks Matt!
@@steveloudon7491 Hi, yes, I did and it works. And if I can do it, an over 60 digital immigrant, anybody can!! ;-) The interface on both sites look a little different. Just select that latest version of both. I downloaded and installed the latest MPV for my Windows 10 64b system. Then I downloaded the latest version of Ikaros. Then I carefully followed exactly what he showed. It took a while as he talks fast. It helps if you put on the CC subtitles so you can read what he is saying. I had to back the video up a number of times to make sure I had it right. But in the end, it worked exactly as he said it would. GIve it a try and lmk if it works for you. If not, I might be able to do a few screen shots for you. Best of luck!
PS., this, from the comment directly below mine, was MOST important! Thanks Tristianherbert6451! "The mpv downloader has now replaced 'stable' with 'release' "
@@NexStageChannelI'm aware of the stable/ release issue but the problem is when I go to what's supposed to be that screen it's nothing like what is shown in the video.
@@steveloudon7491 Yes, I hear you. You are right; it doesn't look the same. But the files you need are still right there in plain sight ;-) Just look for the link with the same name structure that has the latest date on it that Matt suggests. Ignore the website design. That's all I did. I just checked it was the right website and the latest download file and, viola', it worked!
You Sir are the man!!!!! Sony should pay or sponsor you or at least use your content to help others, as their online support are clueless when it came to this topic.
I really love those videos when people show something in their video and that actually works....thanks man I was facing this issue from long time even after having a good configuration pc and 3060 Gpu
I have a Canon EOS R6 Mark 2, recording in CLOG3. I've been racking my brain and viewed about 10 videos related to this issue, and I could not find a solution - until now! Thanks a ton for your lessons! It fixed my problem! 😊👍
ohhh my gosh, after over a year I still couldn't see video previews on VLC. I only needed the second half of your video , THANK YOU SO MUCH ! When I opened folder....BOOM. all the thumbnails. What a difference.
I clean installed windows 10 and I forgot about these tips and started sweating. Thank HEAVENS this video and YOU exist. Can't like the video and your beard enough!
