Not all properties are supported by all file types. The prop: prefix is written once, then a semicolon separated list of the properties you want to show should follow.

Edit the string value of PreviewDetails to something like this prop:System.Title.

If this value has not existed before, then delete the created string-value PreviewDetails to restore the default behavior. To do so, just edit this value again and paste the original-data. If this value already exists, backup its contents if you want to be able to restore the current behavior.

So long story short, are there any tools that adds mkv-tag (reading) support to windows explorer (details panel)?Īfter some research I ended up with the following solution:

If I uninstall Icaros (or disable property support), everything is like before with "duration", "TITLE" and so on displayed in details panel. But even if "property-support" is enabled in Icaros, the details panel of windows explorer only shows the "file-size", "last-modified" and "created". It shows mkv-embeded cover art as thumbnails in windows explorer. Even if I've select the corresponding data-columns they stay empty, so this tags seems to be not recognized by windows. Others, like "PRODUCER", "DIRECTOR", "DATE_RELEASED", "ACTOR" and "SUMMARY" are not displayed. Some tags seems to be supported by windows-10 out of the box as the mkv-tags for "TITLE", "GENRE" and "LAW_RATING" are already displayed in the details panel of the windows explorer, along with those for every file like "file-size", "last-modified", "created" and nearly every video file like "width", "height", "duration", "total-bitrate" and "fps".
