I have unchecked show video files in preview but they still show. Can this be fixed?

I've tried to reproduce your problem. When unchecking Video files (in "Options > Tools > Browser > File List") the videos are no longer played in the preview area, but they are still shown. This may not 100% what one would expect because it says "Show in preview", but I think this behaviour is o.k.. The only problem that I can see might be performance for loading the video player, but from if I understand right in most cases the internal video player is used. Do you experience problems with the preview?

i dont want it to even show video image in preview because it slows down a bit to generate the preview image for the video. so i would like nothing in preview for videos--which is what i expect from that setting.

Hmm, currently there is one setting only. There are two behaviours:

a.) Have a preview of the video and wait a bit (?) for the preview
b.) Have no preview at all

Either we find a way to have two settings or a decision must be made what the option does (a. or b.).

unfortunately "b.) Have no preview at all" still previews screen pic and slows thing down

Does it slow down significantly? When viewing .mpg and .avi files I don't notice any difference (admitting that I have not tested much).

So here we must have another setting, perhaps a 'No first frame for video'??
