Sort by Duration, Duration Header
A thing that I miss from Windows Explorer is the Length Column and the way you can sort by it, size sometimes do the job but is affected by quality. Considering XnView already shows the Video Duration in the Properties of file and in the Thumbnail. Can it be implemented (Sort by Duration, Duration Header)? or Some extra config or addon already do it?

The duration column is present in Windows Explorer.
You just have to select it by right-clicking on the column titles.

I agree this would be desirable to add as a sorting option, and also as a column in Details view.bbaldner wrote: Sun Jan 04, 2026 6:32 pm Considering XnView already shows the Video Duration in the Properties of file and in the Thumbnail. Can it be implemented (Sort by Duration, Duration Header)?
Re: Sort by Duration, Duration Header
The point of this topic is a suggestion for XnView MP. I only made the assumption that the data is already being collected and displayed in XnView MP. I'm not a native speaker but Duration sounds more accurate. What really matters is the info(metadata?).Franky wrote: Mon Jan 05, 2026 10:30 am The duration column is present in Windows Explorer.

Only compared the function I suggested with the one named as Length in Windows, the standard they use to organize media duration.
