Tahoe Finder Missing Video Duration in Detailed Info

This is an interesting one to explain.


In the Finder window, on the previous macOS, you were able to see the video duration right in the details section, once you had that option enabled of course. Right where it shows the details of when the file was created/opened/edited.


I updated to Tahoe today, and now all video durations show as --:--.


When you have a 5 part video, all different lengths, you need to be able to see the video duration to tell what part goes where.


Right now, I have to open up each video file individually in Quick Time to see the video duration.


Anyone else have this issue?


I tried talking to support, and they seem to be convinced it's an Adobe issue. Not sure how that makes sense, as that would mean macOS would need Adobe services to show basic file details. They also thought it might have been the external hard drive I was using, however it's the exact same on the internal Downloads folder.


I have restarted the Mac, and also tried re-downloading a video file since the OS upgrade. Same thing.


I can't even click on "Get Info" on the file itself to get the Duration. It doesn't even appear anywhere in the details.



Where is the Duration details? This is a pretty important piece of info for an environment that is all about increasing productivity. Surely they didn't remove it?

In the Finder you can Control click in the columns header area and add in the Duration..


.from the contextual menu drop down. It might well take time to populate, much like Size.
