Public bug reported: Binary package hint: mplayer
After recent mplayer updates, when clicking on a video file whose name includes space, from nautilus, gmplayer spits an error saying it could not open file x%20x.avi (format doesnt matter). gmplayer probably replaces spaces with "%20", and then cant find the corresponding file. But if i drag the same video file from nautilus to mplayer (gmplayer) play bar, the movie starts. Same if i choose "open with" > mplayer (not gmplayer), the movie starts fine. Its not a vital bug, but it can be quite annoying. :) Related post on French forum: http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?id=168696 mplayer --version : MPlayer 1.0rc2-4.1.3 (C) 2000-2007 MPlayer Team Thanks ** Affects: mplayer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gmplayer fails to play a file whose filename contains spaces https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164709 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
