Information in file tips

Hi,

How is the information showed in the file tips configured?

I mean, when you move the mouse over an icon for a file, you get this yellow box with info about the file.

For example, I used to get information about bitrate and mp3tag when moving it over an mp3 file. For some reason I don't get this information anymore. Must have been some upgrade of KDE or something. Now it just shows file size and permissions, etc.

However, even when I had this mp3 information in the tool tip, I couldn't find where to define what I want to see.
I am more interested in bitrate and artist/songname/album, than e.g. comment/year/genre and so on. When there was lots of info in the mp3 tag, the information I wanted to see was not shown, because it had selected to not to show some of the information if there was too much to fit in the window.

How can I enable this function again, and how can I configure which fields to see?

I do have file tips enabled, and it does show a lot of information on e.g. rpm files.
