Still, you can format the file name in order to provide the means to the 'ls' command to properly understand the path of the file. Something like the following should help you: find /home/ftp -mtime +238 -name \*.mpg -printf \'%p\'\\n | xargs ls -lt
Unless the filename contains single quotes, which wouldn't be too surprising to find in a song name. It would be nicer if xargs could easily just take arguments separated by newlines instead of spaces, since newlines in filenames are much rarer than space or quoting characters.
