Description David 2018-02-14 07:55:45 UTC

With Amarok being the typical KDE music player and part of the KDE ecosystem, I'm wondering why doesn't Dolphin get right-click options related to Amarok for music files like Konqueror used to, such as 'Play with Amarok', 'Add to Playlist', and 'Replace Playlist'.

This would need to be something that Amarok makes available; we shouldn't hardcode anything in Dolphin.

Comment 2 Pino Toscano 2018-05-28 20:43:27 UTC

Most probably this happens because the latest releases of Amarok are still based on Qt 4 / kdelibs 4.x, and thus the service menus are installed in a location specific for kdelibs 4.x.
This will be fixed "automatically" once Amarok is released as Qt 5 / Frameworks.

Yep, I encountered the same kind of bug with krename (#389926). With amarok from current master there's append, append&play and queue available.

Marking as fixed as they currently work on my system with Amarok 2.9.71 and Dolphin 23.08.4.
(Maybe someone notices and reports if they stop working with KF6/Plasma6, and they'll be fixed for KF6 based Amarok somewhere later in this decade then)
