I think you are right. So, the improvement would be something like
re-registering the file associations for players. For example, if I run:
vlc --register-with-kde
mplayer --register-with-kde
noatun --register-with-kde
it would register and place on top all the file associations it knows about.
What do you think? Does is worth sending it to bugs.kde.org

be nice that anytime that you install another, it changes.
There are many players in GNU/Linux, and many of them are based on
KDE. I have around 4 installed, and I use it in different situations.
I'm sure that Noatun isn't the better one, but it's the default for
the KDE package, maybe because for most people is enough.
Anyway, you can ask the developers of KDE for that improvement if you
think it would be a good thing, in https://bugs.kde.org .

Hi, how can I uninstall noatun in debian 4.0, kde 3.5?
kde depends on kdeaddons which depends on noatun-plugins which
depends
on
noatun (if I am not mistaken).
If you installed the kde metapackage I guess you need to go
through the
single packages it pulls in and decide on a per-package basis
which ones
you
need, then you can remove kde without loosing all the rest, which I
guess?
is your problem.
Or, in simple terms: aptitude remove noatun as admin if it is
not.

I think is easier. Right click on the file, and select the item
Properties. The you will see a description of the file, and a
icon with
a
tool, click on it. There you will see a list of the preferred
application
for that kind of files. Also you can select a application for
open a
file
one time only in the item Open with

I wonder why vlc or kaffine are not put on top of file
associations after
installing them.
After making a fresh install of debian/kde, noatun is the default
player.
Then, I install vlc and kaffeine and amarok. Why are them not put
at the
top of the file associations? Is this a feature or a bug?
