Hmm. The “preview” option is missing with video files that have been downloaded.

Hey kluelos, did you mean the preview/play link in Files tab?

I did mean that.

I understand it’s supposed to be an icon now, but nothing’s there at all.

Double-clicking or right-clicking and choosing “open” still work though.

This suggestion has been made to the development team, an icon/link will be added in the next version. :slight_smile:

Thank you kluelos.

Well, it’s not a suggestion, the release notes say:

GUI Improved: change the text of preview/open in task list to icon

so it’s a defect.

Hi kluelos, this defect has been fixed in the latest Beta:

[2010.11.09] GUI Bugfix: preview icons in file list display incorrectly in XP.
