[Help] Is there a way to add an item to the right-click menu

Post by caffeinatedcoder »

I've been looking through the plugins and see there is one that allows you to create custom items in the EventGhost system tray, but I'm looking to add an option to the right click menu that when selected will run a macro. Is this possible? If so, how? If not, any suggestions on an alternative? What I want to do is be able to right-click on an mp3 file and run a macro that will convert the file using ffmpeg.

Wow....I feel REALLY stupid right now. Let's just blame it on lack of coffee and never speak of this again.....

Well anything can be done. But I am having a hard time understanding what it is you specifically want. The running a macro thing can be easily added to the system tray. But pulling the filename to convert would be a different matter. Or would it be easier to right click the actual file in Windows explorer and have a menu option there??
