Hi friends,
Recently i came to know about the method to add a context menu entry in the nautilus window manager. By using that we can easily add music files to the playlist, instead of drag them and add to the list.
Initially you should have nautilus-actions-config package. Here we go
1.open the terminal and type
nautilus-actions-config
it ll open a window.
2. In that click add, it will open a new action window.
3. In that, specify the following things:
label: add to playlist
tool tip: add to totem playlist
icon: /usr/share/pixmaps/totem.xpm
path: totem
Parameters: –enqueue %M
3.then in the conditions tab
Filenames: *.mp3
MIME type: audio/*
4.then in advanced conditions tab,
select local files option.
save that action and close the terminal and reboot the system.
Cheers,

Hi dharani!
I searched all net to find something about enqueue songs on Totem, thanks for help!
I use Mandriva here on my notebook and I’d like to add a fact that happened to me:
I followed your tip and here I had to change only one thing. At the path/parameters section I changed this:
PATH: totem –enqueue
PARAMETERS: %M
Here on Mandriva the “–enqueue” must go right after the program name. Other thing I noticed is that we have a lot of parameters to try (%M is just one of then). Its a suggestion to make other options in context menu, even to other programs!
Great stuff! Tnx!
Long life to Linux!
Thanx for the info man
