I am designing an application, where I need to play the audio files.
While opening the audio files using NSOpenPanel,
how to customize the preview so that, a small player appears in the preview.
As like in finder a small player appears when audio files are selected.

I don't know of any way to specifically show a preview in Finder/ Open panel. However, there's two routes I can think of:


1) Write a QuickTime importer for your type. Finder previews QuickTime files, so they could be played there. Of course, this doesn't work because the NSOpenPanel doesn't show any previews at all.

2) Create an accessory view for your panel that works on the selected item and contains a "play" button. Of course, this won't integrate it into the Finder, and it also won't put the preview stuff in the column with the additional info on a selected file...
