My ubuntu used to play music or vids by pushing the space bar while the cursor is over the file. How can I get this back on 14.10?

You can just go

sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install gnome-sushi

This will install gnome-sushi which enables such preview functionality on nautilus. I'm not sure about other file managers.

It can preview music, photos, videos and folders. It uses a slick window to do this, with all basic functionality available such as pausing and skipping..etc

    In general, it's good practice to post a little explanation to go along with commands that you suggest. In this case, since you're suggesting install software, it might be good to explain what this software does. Nov 9, 2014 at 15:16
