            Bug ID: 450351
           Summary: The player on media preview should not stop on
                    hovering a different element
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 21.08.2
          Platform: Debian unstable
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: panels: information
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
          Reporter: bug.kde at petzel.at

  Target Milestone: ---

When using the media player in dolphin’s information panel hovering another
file will result in a removal and thus a stop of this media player. This means
that on previewing media files withing dolphin (which could be a super useful
thing, as it is faster than opening a media player) is quite a hassle as we
must make sure not to hover anything in the meantime.

Thus I’d suggest to have the media preview remain playing on hovering a file.
Maybe we could even have something like if we play a media file and hover or
select something else the media control for the current files goes to the top
of the information panel, effectively allowing us to use the media preview
without limiting the use of the file manager at the same time.
