It seems to be there and ready but says it is not implemented (and returns an empty string).  I am trying to get a representative thumbnail for each view item but it appears that the only way to do this is to get all the files (GetFiles) and then get a thumbnail for one of the files.  This is very slow, especially for the top-level view schemes where most of the library files are retrieved by GetFiles() so it would be great to have a shortcut to a thumbnail.

Thumbnails are no longer files on disk with filenames, so this function is deprecated.

Ok, do you have a different recommendation on how to do this efficiently?  That is, get a thumbnail from some sub-file of a view item without having to retrieve the whole file list?  Thanks.
