What is the video-thumbnail naming scheme in konqueror for manual thumbnails?

Hi all.

I dont want to enable auto-preview generation of video thumbnails,
except from certain files and folders. That is ok for me, because i know
how to make nicer thumbnails of videos than konqueror (with transcode/mencoder/convert).

But where (which folder under ~/.thumbnails) do i have to put the thumbs i
created manually and how exactly do i have to name them so that konqueror
can read them as they where autogenerated by itself?

Example:

I want for my ~/downloads/GameTrailers/t_mgs4_gc06_ext_h264.wmv video
to have the thumbnail i created manually, called ~/downloads/GameTrailers/.thumbs/t_mgs4_gc06_ext_h264.jpg showed with preview in konqueror.

How do i enable such a thing?

Bye all.

EDIT: in order to save space i want to symlink my ~/path/to/.thumbs to ~./thumbnails/some/path with correct name.
That would be the best thing (if possible) i think.
