           Summary: Button "Properties | General | Explore in Filelight"

Error message after pressing "Explore in Filelight"

If you right click on a folder in Dolphin, you can choose the "Properties"
menu. In the tab "General", there is a button "Explore in Filelight" which
normally opens Filelight which displays a graphical statistics about the
directory's content.

If you try to do the same with a folder of an MTP device like an Android phone,
this function fails with an error message popping up that the folder could not
be read.

Note that it is possible to open the folder of the MTP device from within
Filelight directly, so this is why I think Dolphin is to blame here.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Plug in an Android phone by USB, choose the USB setting "Files" on the phone
2. Browse into the phone's file system with Dolphin, right click on any folder
and press the button "Explore in Filelight"

OBSERVED RESULT
An error message pops up, see screenshot

EXPECTED RESULT
Filelight should be opened and show a statistics of the folder
