Play Folder via Windows Explorer Contextmenu

[itanium99]

Hello

and thank you very much for your good work. I have a question. With VUPlayer 2.x it was possible to play the contents of a folder via the context menu. The extension in the Windows registry would look like this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Play with VUPlayer]
@=“Play with VUPlayer”
“Icon”=“\”C:\Program Files\VUPlayer 4\VUPlayer.exe\“,0”

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Play with VUPlayer\command]
@=“\”C:\Program Files\VUPlayer 4\VUPlayer.exe” \“%1\””

With the new VUPlayer 4.18, the player starts, but no files are listed. What is missing here or is the new version not supporting this?

Many thanks for your efforts
and greetings from Germany

In the meantime, I have programmed a small application that recursively adds the desired files from a folder to the VUPlayer.exe using parameters, which works perfectly.

Hi,

Just to let you know there is a new version of the application (v4.19) which will now recognise folders via the command line (previously, only file names were recognised). For example "VUPlayer.exe" "C:\My Music" should open the My Music folder. This will hopefully resolve the issue when using the folder shell entry from the registry.

Thanks,
James
