Local thumbnails not working for AVI, MPG/MPEG, or WMV: ThumbnailUtils: java.io.IOException: Failed to create thumbnail

See original GitHub issue

Description

I’m trying to load some thumbnails from video file but I notice that some video formats throws a runtime exception:

So I had to dig deeper to test with different video formats and for me, AVI, MPG/MPEG, and WMV throws this exception every time.

Reproduction

Load a thumbnail from the following video file formats: AVI, MPG/MPEG, or WMV.
