I'm still trying to tweak my file associations in KDE and I have encountered an odd problem. I just installed the Crossover Plugin so I can use some Windows plugins and so far it seems to work pretty good. But I am having an odd problem with file associations.
I have downloaded and installed Windows Media Player and am trying to get it to associate with .wmv files. In my list of file associations I have an x-ms-wmv mimetype, filename pattern is set to *.wmv, and the application preference order is just set to "wmediaplayer.sh" (the Crossover launcher for Media Player). Embedding is set to "show file in a seperate viewer." If I left-click on a .wmv file I get a bunch of crap in my browser window and Windows Media Player does not open. However, if I right click on it, select Open With, then type in wmediaplayer.sh it opens it just fine. What am I doing wrong with my associations? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks... -Chris
