Peek request

Description of the new feature / enhancement

Thanks for all your work. Would love if Peek could also work with audio & video files.

Scenario when this would be used?

As a content creator, I'm constantly needing to review media files. Previewing would make work flow so much faster. This is one of the few things I miss from Mac OS.

The current version should support video files. Are there video file types that are not working for you?

Thank you for the fast response. MP4 nor MOV files worked with peek

MP4 are working on my side. I haven't tested MOV files yet.

Hello all 😺

Thank you @SamChaps for your previous answers about this.

I wanted to add :

The video files play when peeked but the audio files (mp3, wav...) do not play, peek just shows metadata about them.

This feature (audio files playing in peek) would make peek complete in my opinion hope you consider it.

Have a great day

Love these toys, UI is so so clean 👀 congrats to the contributors

@JimmyLaslo can you give more detail on the video and where they may live? The more info the better. An mov off my iphone would be a good representation? is the file on onedrive or just my desktop?
