Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: firefox-3.0
Trying to open an m3u file which contains funny WMA files that cannot be
(currently) handled by Totem/mplayer/... but can be handled by
RealPlayer. No entry for m3u in about:plugins. In mimeTypes.rdf the
"FileExtensions=m3u" lists the description as "MP3 audio (streamed)".
In Firefox preferences I changed "MP3 audio (streamed)" to "Use
/opt/real/RealPlayer (default)" after installing RealPlay and letting it
install Mozilla preferences. In about:plugins Totem is listed as player
for "MP3 audio", no mention of "(streamed)".
Still uses Totem, not realplayer.
Edited mineTypes.rdf to set
<RDF:Description RDF:about="urn:mimetype:handler:audio/x-mpegurl"
NC:alwaysAsk="true"
NC:useSystemDefault="false">
Clicking on m3u link asked about application to use, including realplayer.
Selecting this started Totem again! rrealplayer expected.
$ lsb_release -rd
