What feature or improvement do you think would benefit Files?

Hello,

Would it be possible to add option for auto playing video and audio in preview pane. Also another option for looping. Currently, when you select the video/audio file, preview pane shows the preview, but user needs to manually press play to start the playback, also the media will not loop.
