Add files to Totem playing list from Nautilus

November 10th, 2005 by George Notaras

This Nautilus script is used to add multimedia files to the Totem playing list. What files are considered as multimedia is user-defined.

Installation: put it in ~/.gnome2/nautilus-scripts/ directory and enable the executable attribute.
Usage: after editing the multimedia file extensions list within the script, select some files and append them to Totem’s playing list from the right-click menu.

Version: 0.3
Requires: Zenity, Totem

Download the script from the link below:
add_to_totem_playing_list.tar.gz

Update: Please use Jim’s method described in the comments. It’s by far a more decent solution! Thanks Jim :-)

    Or just use nautilus-actions-config and use the following settings:
    Label: Tooltip: Add to totem playlist
    Icon:/usr/share/pixmaps/totem.xpm
    Action:totem
    Parameters: –enqueue %M
    Appears if file matches filenames:*.mp3 ; *.ogg ; *.mpc ; *.aac ; *.wav ; *.ac3 ; *.avi ; *.ogm ; *.mpg ; *.mpeg ; *.wmv ; *.rm ; *.ram ; *.vob ; *.asf
    Appears if selection contains: only files
    Appears for multiple: true

    This is an excellent tip!

    Until today I hadn’t given much attention to the nautilus-actions-config utility. It’s very neat.

    Thanks :)
