Traceback (most recent call last):

    folderchooser.set_uri("file://" + VideosFolder)
TypeError: cannot concatenate 'str' and 'NoneType' objects

archlinux, installed from AUR i3wm at version 4.12 first attempt run through rofi launcher, then tried run in terminal to see whats the issue.

Try running it with python2

DoTheEvo commented 7 years ago

like this?

nope

VideosFolder = GLib.get_user_special_dir(GLib.USER_DIRECTORY_VIDEOS) is the problem I hardcoded there some random folder on my system and it works now, I guess i3 and gi / GLib are not working as well as they could

gort818 commented 7 years ago

Hmmm. Can you confirm you have GLib installed? Maybe they don't place nice together, I will look into this.

gort818 commented 7 years ago

Just tested on arch with i3, no issues on my end.

I am gonna assume this is from the user's side then.

Thank you all.
