Opening a video or a song in My files, by a double-click or Open, now plays it in an in-app player window, streamed from the mount as before. Open With… is the way to another player, and the separate Play item is gone. A file GStreamer can't play shows the error with Open With…. Both that player and the Photos lightbox share the new widgets/player.rs: a fullscreen button, fullscreen on a double-click, Repeat in the ⋮ menu, K to play and pause, J/L or Shift+arrows to jump 10 seconds, M to mute, and a volume that carries over between videos. The lightbox's thumbnail strip stays off a video, where it covered the seek bar.
Proton Drive for Linux documentation
Proton Drive for Linux is an unofficial Proton Drive client for the Linux desktop. Your Drive appears as a folder that downloads files when you open them, local folders are backed up and kept in sync, and a GTK app with a tray icon and a search launcher covers Photos, sharing and more. A command-line client does all of it from a terminal.
These pages are also published as the
