Adding new option: open containing folder

Open TotalCaesar659 opened this issue 9 years ago • 8 comments

Could you add "Open containing folder" like in foobar2000? It's very useful and necessary function. 1 screenshot from 2016-03-31 04-26-09

You can add this yourself using the built-in ShellExec plugin (Menu -> Edit -> Configure custom shell commands).

The command itself should look something like xdg-open %D

Thank you very much! Note for other people: if you're using Lubuntu, the command is "pcmanfm %D".

How can this be done in Arch linux?

Same as anywhere else.

I've added xdg-open %D to custom shell command but the command isn't showing in the right click menu and I get the error Unable to detect the URI-scheme of "%D"

@sinqbad This indicates that you put %D in quotes, like this: "%D", or '%D'. That is wrong. Deadbeef will add the quotes automatically.

I don't know why it doesn't appear in the context menu though. Most likely you did another thing wrong.

Try adding the new shell command from scratch, and don't change any command checkboxes from their default values.

@sinqbad maybe you used a slash / character in the command title. In this case, it has been added to the main menu instead.

@sinqbad If nothing helps -- please post a screenshot of the command that you made.

No that did it. Thank you so much.
