This one really annoys me. Until its fixed you can use the following
workaround:


$ cd ~
$ mkdir .scripts
$ cd .scripts
$ nano vlcdir

(paste this:)
#!/bin/bash
cd "$1"
vlc *

press CTRL+X, Y

$ chmod +x vlcdir
$ sudo nano /etc/profile

(add this to the end, use your username)
PATH=$PATH:/home/username/.scripts
export PATH

-----------
Now do a reboot and you will be able to open directories by using the vlcdir 
script.
