Description Venca B Spam 2018-04-16 06:20:50 UTC

Feature request: Support webdavs:// protocol to play albums and music from Nextcloud.

Use case:

Let's have a bookmarked place 'My Cloud Music' in Dolphin. The 'My Cloud Music' points to actual url which looks like 'webdavs://nextcloud.myserver.mydomain/nextcloud/remote.php/webdav/Media/My Albums/'.

Bob wants to play Alice music:
- Bob starts Elisa 
- Click on 'Add new path'
- From the Open URL/location dialog selects the bookmarked place My Cloud Music'
(optionally: inserts the url manually)
(optionally advanced: or will browse for the url in special dialog)
- Elisa will show to remote collection
- Bob click on the album and it will start play same as local music

This is a nice idea. I will add it to the Elisa workboard.

Could you also try to reach to the ownCloud developer working on the music application to see if he has an idea for another way to get the music in a desktop application ?
