SUMMARY There seem to be a general issue with opening files through kdeconnect directly on desktop (say using dolphin). Opening pdfs completely fails (see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=430146) Opening music or video files is very hit and miss, sometimes it works fine for the whole song (in my experience videos have to be very very short for it to work), sometimes it only plays for a bit and then stops (or jumps to the end), sometimes it does not start at all (music tried with VLC and Elisa, videos tried with VLC). System info: KDE Connect on desktop: 20.08 KDE connect on Android: (tried v14.2 and 15.1) Android version 9 Operating System: KDE neon 5.20 KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.4 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.76.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 Kernel Version: 5.4.0-56-generic OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i5-8350U CPU @ 1.70GHz Memory: 15.4 GiB of RAM Graphics Processor: Mesa Intel® UHD Graphics 620
I wonder if there is a connect with the general sftp data corruption bug that affects KDE Connect (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=405847) in that opening files directly on desktop will involve data transfer and so the data might get corrupted on the way.
Same problem on neon unstable. I'm unable to play videos from my Android 6 device. Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.89.0 Qt Version: 5.15.3 Graphics Platform: Wayland
Seems to work fine these days. Loading videos remains a bit slow and playback can be a bit laggy but it works.
