Hi,
See title.
I tried jolla-mediaplayer "$HOME/path/to/awesome video.mp4"
Trying it with jolla-gallery and renaming dirs & files to no spaced names didn't work either.

xdg-open "$HOME/path/to/awesome video.mp4"
almost.....I tried your command it didn't work, in the end, I got it with this;
xdg-open $HOME/Videos/Camera/video.mp4
Now, what would be great is if it would open and play automagically! :)

I don't feel like to rename every folder nor file to open them with this command. Using double-quotes work at my side.

Spam Hunter ( 2015-12-03 14:16:35 +0300 )@Markkyboy Unless you set something in the terminal (forgot which constant it is) spaces have to be escaped. And for sure I don't set that constant on purpose because that would likely break other scripts :)
And since I'm using folders and files with spaces, I'd have to rename them when I don't use double-quotes.

If you wanna try LLs Videoplayer...
Mced ( 2015-11-28 11:00:37 +0300 )@Mced: Thank you very much. Your solution worked. Almost...
I figured out it's
camelCase at the wrong place sigh
LLs Videoplayer autoplays the video rightaway :)
