How to add video playback via VLC in FTP mount (Windows network location)?
Good afternoon!
I'm looking for a way to add support for playing video files from Windows Explorer when viewing files from a remote location (Network FTP).
If I copy the location of the file and paste it into the player, then everything works, but I would like to double-click on the file and not do any unnecessary actions.
Now when you click on a file, Windows gives this: "This file does not have a program associated with it to perform this action."
File properties:
What I would like to see:
Option 1 . When you click on a file with extensions .mp4, .avi and the like, VLC is launched with a link to the file passed to it. Probably something like: vlc.exe " ftp://192.168.1.1/Main/Я48257.mp4 "
Option 2. When you right-click, a new item "Open with VLC" appears in the explorer's context menu, when you click on it, everything happens the same as in step 1.
Of course, it's better to have 1 option, but the 2nd one is also suitable.
The application contains the contents of a .reg file that adds a new menu to the explorer context menu (Right Click).
In this example, the menu appears when right-clicking in folders and on the desktop (in an empty area).
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\background\shell\cmd_here]
@="Командная строка (CMD)"
"Icon"="cmd.exe"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\background\shell\cmd_here\command]
@="\"C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe\""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shell\cmdPrompt]
@="Командная строка (CMD)"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shell\cmdPrompt\command]
@="\"C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe\" \"cd %1\""
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\shell\cmd_here]
@="Командная строка (CMD)"
"Icon"="cmd.exe"
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Directory\shell\cmd_here\command]
@="\"C:\\Windows\\System32\\cmd.exe\""
