Re: calling a shell script from a servicemenu

Yes, I followed Aaron's article, in fact that is my
only reference :).

I tried running directly from the shell the exact
command I had it in the .desktop file and it actually
didn't work.  So I then tried it without the -c option
and it worked (in the shell).  However, I then tried
putting it like that in the .desktop file but it
didn't work. 

This is my entire .desktop file:

[Desktop Entry]
ServiceTypes=audio/x-mp3
Actions=Encode32;Encode64;Encode96
X-KDE-Submenu=Re-Encode

[Desktop Action Encode32]
Name=32 bit
Icon=.mp3
Exec=/bin/sh /usr/bin/reencodemp3 -- %u

[Desktop Action Encode64]
Name=64 bit
Icon=.mp3
Exec=/bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/reencodemp3 %u 64"

[Desktop Action Encode96]
Name=96 bit
Icon=.mp3
Exec=/bin/sh -c "/usr/bin/reencodemp3 %u 96"


thanks
