Mediainfo's tooltips no longer display [Fixed]

Post by topbanana »

If Mediainfo is installed, it gives the option to change the Explorer Tooltip to display an expanded description of media you hover over, codecs, bitrates, resolution, etc.
This optional tooltip worked great on E++ 1.3.5

It sadly does not in 1.4.0.1444 64 bit, Win10 x64

It remains working in 1.3.5 and also in Window's File Manager, so it's is installed and enabled correctly.


To go further, and request a feature:
Could Mediainfo be integrated into E++? Like it already is with Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC), where it's been a tab in the File - Properties dialog for years. It's DLL is available for such integration.
E++ could include the option of displaying Mediainfo's tooltips and possibly also include the Mediainfo tab in File - Properties (tho i'm guessing this properties box is just the windows standard one?)

I do have the same problem with MediaInfo on Windows 7 prof x32.

Interesting thing is all the MediaInfo tolltip data is available in confirmation of a single file delete window.

Also, It would be a very good feature to have the MediaInfo tips on the status bar, as I find tooltips to be a bit annoying, because they hide some file names, when visible.
