Re: Getting video properties quickly
I just tried it with a 6G HD mpeg video with a Dolby Digital audio track... It's as close to instantaneous as I could ask.
I can't get my finger off the mouse button following the right-clicked Properties... menu selection before the properties window has mapped. I'd estimate a 150-200ms delay.
This is not a high-end system although it's not a pig, either.
The concept of displaying media properties in a popup is a nice one, but nothing new.
Take a look at the KDE file browser, dolphin.
Yes, you can run kde apps under gnome and vice versa.
I'm always amazed by how many Ubuntu users don't even bother to look at the other interface types available to them... Some (eg, KDE) are a lot more eye-candy rich than Gnome.
