Using video-compare via Send To

Using video-compare via Send To

couleurm opened this issue 2 years ago · comments

Not sure if anyone thought of this before, but here's a quick tutorial of how I use video-compare when I don't need to specify any other args than input:

Right click -> Send To -> video-compare, here's an example

To get video-compare to appear in the Send To field you'll need to open the send to folder, which you can access by typing shell:sendto in Run (Windows+R) then a folder will open, simply make a shortcut to video-compare.exe and you're done

PS: You can do that very fast by selecting two files, then right clicking any of them, pressing N (focuses send to), then V (selects video-compare)
^ Though the Notepad++ context menu with interfere if you have it

Hey @couleurm,

I don't understand the last line:

"^ Though the Notepad++ context menu with interfere if you have it"

Can you elaborate? Thanks 👍

Try right clicking a file and pressing N with and without the Notepad++ context menu, I'm having a hard time explaining it like that

(also make sure your windows language is english)

Ah, OK. I understand what you mean now.

Anyway, your tip has been added to the README. Have a nice weekend!
