Nautilus crashes when viewing directory with .jp2

Question

Nautilus crashes whenever one tries viewing a directory containing jpeg 2000 files, I suspect because it tries to create a thumbnail and fails (I'm using 13.10, and you can probably reproduce this quite easily as well).

Is there a way to tell nautilus not to thumbnail certain formats?
Is there a known fix for this problem? There are similar bugs for very old versions of nautilus, but not any in recent years.

This is a confirmed bug.

To disable thumbnails of .jp2, see this question.

What's the mime type though? – Nathaniel Bubis Feb 03 '14 at 03:02
The mime type is image/jp2. – Ian Hyzy Feb 03 '14 at 21:42
That doesn't seem to work - file says the mime type is octal, not jp2 :( – Nathaniel Bubis Feb 03 '14 at 21:47
Octal doesn't seem to be a valid mime type? – Ian Hyzy Feb 06 '14 at 22:46
Disabling jp2 thumbnails still causes the crash in Utopic, btw – scruss Jan 01 '15 at 16:03
