The properties for videos are in the "Video" section only(?):

Or are there more in other sections (like the ones for audio files which also are in the video section?)

Could one show in a column or else what properties are already used (available in the properties tab)?

Some properties are listed in multiple sections.

For example, Length is listed under Audio and Video.
There is only one Length property.
The same Length property is listed under multiple sections.



Most properties belong to multiple sections.
I did experiment with a column to show all the owning sections.
However, because most properties belong to multiple sections, it becomes hard to read and irrelevant.



If you click the Everything properties section (top left), all Everything properties are shown.
The Video section is a sub section of the Everything properties section.

For example, Length is listed under Audio and Video.
This is the same Length property.
OK, the identical property showing the lengths of video files and audio files.
I did experiment with a column to show all the owning sections.
So to find out from which formats the length is displayed.
The Video section is a sub section of the Everything properties section.
How each section is a sub section of the Everything properties section, I assume.
