No way to enqueue multiple files selected in nautilus

Bug Description

I really like the playlist feature in totem but I find it difficult to use. If I want to play multiple files that I have in a directory, I have to double-click one of them, select all but that one and drag them into the list. If I double-click the lot, I get a warning about opening up 20 instances.

I would like to see an 'enqueue' option in the right-click menu when a bunch of media files are selected.

Thanks for your bug. What version of Ubuntu do you use? With dapper opening a selector from nautilus starts totem once with the selection and they are added to the playlist, which probably fixes your issue

Excellent news. I am on Breezy. It sounds as though this is exactly what I was talking about - well done all involved!

I will test this again when I upgrade and close this bug if it is as it sounds.
