How to right-click and queue up a song

Asked by Tomes

So, on Windows you can usually right-click and queue up a song into the various media players... how do you go about doing such a thing here? I notice that running a song starts the 'rhythmbox' app, but a quick manpage doesn't reveal any options that I think I can make use of as a custom CLI option I can just chuck at the end of the line. Just trying to find equivalent functionality as what I'm used to elsewhere.

Have you tried Amarok?
No offense, GTK Lovers, but Amarok "pwnz" Rythmbox.

Tomes, you can use "rhythmbox-client"

In terminal, "rhythmbox-client --enqueue [PATH\SongName]"

In nautilus, choose open with, then add a custom command,
"rhythmbox-client --enqueue %s"

All the commands are without the quote (" ").

Cheers =)
