All is the subject !

Using 4.2.3, my previous install (3.5.10) had this functionality.

TIA

not sure you can but mediainfo can provide this ability as a service menu

http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en

fyi - if needed this is the servicemenu provided by Packman for openSuse:
(it's named /usr/share/kde4/services/ServiceMenus/mediainfo-gui.desktop)

[Desktop Entry]
X-SuSE-translate=true
Type=Service
Name=mediainfo-gui.desktop
Encoding=UTF-8
ServiceTypes=KonqPopupMenu/Plugin,audio/*,video/*,image/*,application/x-flash-vi
deo
Actions=mediainfo-gui
X-KDE-Priority=TopLevel

[Desktop Action mediainfo-gui]
Name=MediaInfo
GenericName=Media Analyzer
Exec=mediainfo-gui %u
Icon=mediainfo

It seems that mediainfo is not available in my distro repository (Fedora 10).
But I keep your suggestion as a starting point when I have the time to play with
the service menus.

I'm still wondering why this feature has disappeared between 3.5 and 4.2.

And when I see the preview pane in Dolphin, I suspect that all the necessary
components are present. But is it user configurable ?

What about these rpm's http://mediainfo.sourceforge.net/en/Download/Fedora

Also, you can log into the kde bug tracking system and post a wish list item - if you post there you should make note of the id # here

For reasons I can't explain here, I'm not allowed to use other repositories.

Unfortunately I must stop spending time on this problem.

Thank you very much for your suggestions, I'll keep them for later use.
