Public bug reported: Installed 2.0-426-gc32b3ed-2ubuntu0.1 on Ubuntu 12.04.1.
GUI file managers, such as Nautilus, were unaware of the existence of mplayer because it does not install the necessary .desktop files to associate it with the MIME types it can handle. Seems like this should be part of the packaging for Ubuntu. Work-around: follow the procedure here: http://askubuntu.com/questions/67382/add-custom-command-in-the-open-with-dialog to manually create the associations. ** Affects: mplayer2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1155398 Title: MIME types are not registered To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/mplayer2/+bug/1155398/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
