SUMMARY
Dolphin regenerates local thumbnails for videos etc. on hard drives connected
via usb or sata that are not the drive with the operating system installed
everytime the directory is being viewed.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. connect a new hard drive via sata
2. go to a folder on that hard drive that contains a lot of video files, let it
generate the thumbnails for the first time
3. close dolphin and repeat step 2

OBSERVED RESULT
The thumbnails are being regenerated everytime which causes loud cpu noise and
high usage for that time

EXPECTED RESULT
thumbnails should be loaded from cache
