[SOLVED]Audacious can't open files with spaces on name

I open audacious
Type Ctrl+o and select a directory with spaces on it names,
Audacious opens nothing

Any ideas?

I have deep trees of music with spaces, I was working on a script to rename one by one, but I'm too lazy

Cheers

Works here.

Do you get any error messages? If you start audacious from the terminal, do you get any messages printed there?

Re: [SOLVED]Audacious can't open files with spaces on name

Here is my solution, I did this for every error that apears like that...

[geckos@localhost ~]$ audacious 
(bootstrap.c:60) [mowgli_init]: mowgli_init() is a deprecated function, provided only for backwards compatibility with Mowgli-1.  You should remove it if you no longer support using Mowgli-1.

libcdio-paranoia is one of the optional dependencies for https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extr … s-plugins/ . I do have it installed because it's required by mpv.
