Description Frank 2021-12-17 08:09:49 UTC

The preview function of Dolpin works fine on the local file system on my Neon dist. 
But it does not work on remote filesystems, like samba or webdav.
Samba attachments were via Dolpin, webdav via system and the remote file size set to 50MB or higher.

I rebooted after setting this values, and/or created a new user both show the same result. 

Looks like Dolpin is ignoring the preview on remote filesystems.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1.  Enable preview for remote files in the config menu by increasing the file size. Press Ok or confirm
2. Nothing changes by viewing remote folders. 
3.
