Description Declan Marks 2017-08-30 18:22:31 UTC
A feature that would be great is the ability to view media information within the properties dialogue. What I mean if I open the properties for a file I would like to see details about the file. If it is a picture I would like to see dimensions etc, if it is a video I would like to see dimensions bitrate etc and Music I would like to see length, type, bitrate etc. To view all of this information I either have to open the file or use the terminal and that just affects my workflow. 

The information pane doesn't show enough information.

[Baloo Widgets] Add KPropertiesDialog Plugin with file metadata

This allows to view metadata (such as image dimensions, audio file album and artist information, etc) from the properties dialog.
Through this, tagging and rating functionality is also somewhat more accessible.
