I know that there are commands like cat, less or even xdg-open, but I really like the convenience of just previewing. GNOME Sushi doesn't seem to support commands from the terminal.
Maybe a similar application can do the job or even writing a script? Is there a way to do this?
I'm installing a Kubuntu 20.04 LTS system on a notebook and searching for a fast previewer like gnome-sushi (more). Using this extension allows you to select a file in Nautilus, hit the spacebar and it will show a quick preview.
Are there any alternatives or setups in dolphin I'm missing in Kubuntu 20.04 ?
I have GNOME-sushi installed on Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. Initially when I selected a video and pressed spacebar, the following error occurred.
After installing the gstreamer1.0-plugins-bad and gstreamer1.0-plugins-ugly packages, only the audio is played but not the video.

How to install the missing plugins?
GNOME Sushi works fine within Files app. I can preview files with space bar within any folders of the Files app. However, pressing space bar has no effect for the files on desktop. Do I miss something?
I installed Sushi to be able to preview files. However, when I try to preview OpenDocument files, the entire system freezes. Why do OpenDocument files do this, and are there any alternatives that do not have this issue?
