look for a .desktop file such as mplayer.desktop somewhere in /usr/share/applications. gnome should follow the xdg standards on desktop files. in this file, there is a description how to call a program with appropriate arguments. however if nautilus supplies mplayer with %20 instead of " " it looks more like a nautilus problem then the .desktop description problem. mk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
