You can set your tracks to be viewed as Name, Name Plus Thumbnail, and Filmstrip.

In the Timeline section of the Appearance pane, choose an item from the Timebar Display
pop-up menu:
• Name: Displays the name of the object on the track.
• Name Plus Thumbnail: Displays the name of the object and a single thumbnail on the
track.
