        @t.h.c
        well you can use a dropbox for selecting it and
        draw a preview in a other frame etc.
        and if you need a grid of images, then listview icon mode still should
        work ok.

                  Hi
                  Maybe you can use http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qmovie.html
                  if the previews are simple enough.

                        Hi
                        Yes that would work but judging from your other posts it has to be mp4 etc and im not sure how to easy extract one image to use in preview. I think
                        http://doc.qt.io/qt-5/videooverview.html
                        can be used for that.
