Description
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
When I upload my music collection in FLAC, I cannot see any preview of them in the file list.
Describe the solution you'd like
FLAC is a commonly used open lossless audio format with royalty-free licensing. It would be very useful if Nextcloud added native support for previewing it like for .mp3 files.
Describe alternatives you've considered
None
