(don't know, I'd do it like that in linux) In the right-click menu in Windows explorer you have "Send to->Edit in DispVM" that might do the trick, but I am looking for a command-line option to have a third-party program execute a commandline to open the selected file in external program. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.

The file should only be copied to a temp directory, and not put in QubesIncomming. Which tool/syntax will let me do this? there are two ways: 1) (the better way if you can get a working setup) for sound/video you can use streaming software (i did this some time ago). you have a windows vm W and some linux vm N. you set N as netvm for W. then you use some virtual soundcard (i think i used hifi cable) and some streaming software to stream the sound to the linux vm (i can't remember what i used.) on N you receive the stream. since you can hear all audio output of a linux vm, you will hear sound from W. my setup was fiddly and had about 2 sec audio delay. (but i did not really bother to fix it, so you probably can do better) 2) again have some linux vm N as netvm of a windows vm W. then you can use public folders on W and mount the public folder on N. now you can play the video from N. i used both methods for a while (until i completely switched to linux for all my work-flows). in both cases i did not use the windows tools. if you have working windows tools, you should have a qvm-open-in-dispvm command . you could also try this command.

[qubes-users] Have Windows VM open and play video in Linux VM?
As there is currently no audio support for Windows in Qubes OS: Can I use any of the Qubes windows tools to copy a video file to a Linux vm and have it start playing there? The file should only be copied to a temp directory, and not put in QubesIncomming.
