Dolphin Flatpak is not displaying the Aspect Ratio of video files

Hello everyone 👋

## The problem

I have ~200 video files (.MP4) that I would like to organise based on their dimensions.

However, the Dolphin File Manager (that I installed with Flatpak) does not display their **Aspect Ratio**, the column is enabled but it stays **empty** :

Can someone tell me how to make Dolphin actually populate the empty column?

<br>

## My system

 * `OS:` Debian GNU/Linux trixie/sid
 * `Desktop Environment:` GNOME 47
 * `Software:` Dolphin 24.12.1 (org.kde.dolphin) **installed from Flatpak**

<br>

## Considerations

I installed Dolphin for this one because my default file manager, "GNOME Files" (Nautilus), cannot display video dimensions in the list view, and I was told that Dolphin from KDE could do it.
