VLC specifies SMB protocol support, but this may fail for a number of reasons: - The share is password protected. The credentials have to be provided in VLCs plugin configuration, otherwise it fails with "VLC is unable to open the MRL 'smb://<host>/path/video.mp4'. Check the log for details.", the log tells "Operation not permitted"). - SMB protocol support is packaged as a separate plugin package, e.g. https://packages.debian.org/sid/vlc-plugin-samba LibreOffice has removed SMB from the list of supported protocols for the same reason: https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/sysui/desktop/menus/?id=f9f9aa9873c5851da86d33ca75e937ac022206a3 Possible solutions: - Tell upstreams to do the same as LO, remove all conditional protocols - Provide means to state and detect conditional support 2029712 1 stefan.bruens 2021-05-03 21:06:34 +0000 Likely related (VLC fails to open smb://): https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=75324#c135 2029716 2 stefan.bruens 2021-05-03 21:13:12 +0000 VLC upstream desktop file: http://git.videolan.org/?p=vlc.git;a=blob;f=share/vlc.desktop.in#l124 2030315 3 nate 2021-05-05 20:58:07 +0000 I thought we tried to detect this in kio-fuse specifically for the VLC case... 2065800 4 a.saoutkin 2021-10-03 11:30:58 +0000 This is almost certainly a regression made by changes to KIO::DesktopExecParser::resultingArguments() after fcf4529f62e15cfc891757cf372c4ef7ee7ea4d1 was committed.
