It depends. There are two ways to make streaming work on Dolphin:
- If the app has its own built-in smb/sftp/fts/nfs etc client, then you can make it work by entering network credentials for your mount in the app’s own network client configuration UI. Off the top of my head, VLC does this.
- If you install
kio-fuse, then streaming will work to arbitrary apps, with the following limitations:
– If the app has its own smb/sftp/fts/nfs etc network client, that needs to be disabled, or else the app will try to use it, fail, and not letkio-fuseits its own streaming capability.
– At the moment `kio-fuse supports SMB network locations for streaming, and also a few others, but I can’t remember which ones aren’t supported right now. It’s possible SFTP is one of them. But it can’t hurt to try!
