Nautilus can be configured to show metadata about a file, such as a thumbnail of the media, the timestamp, the file size, etc., accompanying the file's icon in the folder view.

Nautilus is also capable of querying and displaying, in the PropertiesAudio/Video tab, the stream metadata such as stream title (e.g. “Episode 24: Lorem Ipsum”), duration (e.g. “24 minutes 53 seconds”), etc .

How can I configure Nautilus to display the stream title and duration in the folder view next to each file icon?

Try this:

sudo apt-add-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install nautilus-columns

Then open nautilus, go to View -> Visible Columns... and tick whatever additional metadata you want.

[for stream title & duration, you'd probably need to select Title & Length]

(worked for me on Ubuntu 12.04)
