Can reproduce, .mkv videos don't show duration for me. .mp4 does

Duration shown for MKV file

Not reproducible for me on KDE neon, KDE 5.14.80

> Despite being marked as resolved

Where? Which bug?

Is this still an issue? I cannot reproduce. If it is still not working, can someone provide me a sample file that triggers this issue?

Here only files located in my home and indexed by baloo show duration.
This fact makes this Dolpihn feature (duration column) useless because currently baloo is unusable.
Furthermore, almost all my files are located in ntfs partitions and baloo does not indexes such file system.

I forgot my versions.

Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.55.0
Qt Version: 5.12.1

I am at a complete loss to understand your comment. I have in excess of 5,000 files that do not display a duration. Just to confirm we are talking about both .m2ts and .mkv audio video files.

Unlike the previous post none of my files are in my home directory. Is this an issue perhaps?

If you can get the display time to show on one of these files not in the home directory could you please advise the step by step method you use to get the duration to appear please.

OP, system stats as originally advised.

@Patrick Silva:
This bug report is specifically about .m2ts and .mkv files not showing the duration. If you have specific issues with Baloo that makes it unusable for you, please file new bugs if they are not already reported.

@Scott:
Can you provide a small and free sample file which shows the problem and which you can upload (e.g. no copyright infringement)?
Also, can you determine that your files not showing the duration are indexed by Baloo or not? If I am not mistaken, Dolphin's details mode only works if the files are indexed by Baloo.

My problems with baloo are already known.

I can confirm the bug reported here at least with mkv files.
As you can see in my screenshot, there is no additional info about mkv files: duration, height, width and bitrate columns are empty. OGV file is also affected.
I have no m2ts file here to test.

Operating System: Arch Linux 
KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.2
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.56.0
Qt Version: 5.12.1

I have whatever baloo packages are included as standard but use no baloo commands.
You can download mkv files from here: https://sample-videos.com/

@Patrick Silva thanks for the screenshot, that indicates a problem with the extractor

@Scott Can you do me a favor in order to nail down the problem a little bit?
Copy one of your mkv files to your home folder.
Open a console there and type "balooctl index name_of_your_file.mkv"
Please then provide the output of "balooshow name_of_your_file.mkv"
and check if the video duration is shown or not.
Thanks in advance!

Also thanks for the link, did not know that site but looks really helpful!

Alexander,

as requested:

scott@scottlounge:~$ cd Videos
scott@scottlounge:~/Videos$ balooctl index aaa.mkv
Indexing /home/scott/Videos/aaa.mkv
File(s) indexed
scott@scottlounge:~/Videos$ balooshow aaa.mkv
13513045150073602 66306 3146251 /home/scott/Videos/aaa.mkv
scott@scottlounge:~/Videos$ 

Duration column remains blank.

KFileMetaData was not able to extract the properties from .ts and .ogv.
I cannot exactly reproduce the issue with .mkv though, but there were some recent fixes to mimetype detection, which may have been the issue.
Please report back once you have KDE Frameworks 5.57 (to be released April 13th) or higher.

We believe this may have been resolved, so please do re-open it if you find that it has not been after upgrading to Frameworks 5.57. Thamks!

dolphin 18.12.3 + frameworks 5.57

Fixed on Arch Linux at least with mkv files after update to frameworks 5.57.

Excellent, glad to hear it!

I have just upgraded to Kubuntu 19.10 and the problem has not been corrected, the duration column is still empty.

Ok, all fixed, bug can be closed.
