Nautilus doesn't create video thumbnails on sftp since quantal (12.10)

The following warning is thrown:

(nautilus:32597): GnomeDesktop-WARNING **: Unable to create loader for mime 
type video/x-msvideo: Unrecognized image file format
(nautilus:32597): GnomeDesktop-WARNING **: Error creating thumbnail for 
sftp://user@server/media/storage/file.avi: Unrecognized image file format


Affects all video formats on sftp. Thumbnails are shown for local files and 
thumbnails are shown for images on sftp.
All necessary codecs are installed on both machines. And they're both running 
ubuntu 13.04 (Issue first popped up after 12.10 upgrade)

There appears to be a related bug:

But the problem exists even if I switch to ffmpeg-thumbnailer
