If that can get worked out, it would be great. I meant to write a bug on this but never followed through. Perhaps the right approach for providing some minimal sample media would be to install the files in /usr/share, but then have the player copy over the sample media when it runs for the first time as a given user (i.e. when it constructs the media database in ~/.something-or-another.) > > 3) Possibly rename mobile-player to moblin-player or moblin-media?
