Hi
That's what I thought at first too, but this isn't quicklook. When this happens I can press space and quicklook will activate, so I know quicklook isn't turned on to begin with. Also, there's no quicklook window on the screen when this happens, and it only happens for music and movie files. Quicklook would preview text files and documents as well, if that's what it is, but as I said, there is no quicklook window on the screen or in the window chooser, and space doesn't turn it off.

Subject: [macvoiceover] A bit OT: Preview in Finder?


Hi Everyone
Does anyone know how to control the automatic preview in Finder of music and movies? I've been trying to find a way to shut it off, but haven't found one. It's been previewing my movies and music when they're in those folders. This morning, though, I go to try and find a way to shut it off again and it's not previewing at all. It seems like when I want to shut it off I can't, and when I want it to work it won't. From what I can see no options are different today than yesterday when it was previewing, and I can't seem to find any way of changing its behavior either in Finder preferences or in view options for that folder. I don't even see a way to control it in Cocktail.

Can anyone tell me what I'm missing here?
