[Bug 900908] Re: Default-application-chooser doesent do anything

 

No worries. Just happy to help make ubuntu better.
I clicked the small circle in the top right corner. Clicked system settings, then system info, shifted to default applications, made my changes and closed the window. My new settings are still the same when i reopen the window and same after reboot. But the changes havent had any effect.

My music is usually mp3's or m4a's
Movies are usually avi's.

I guess these should already be fairly known mimetypes for movies and
music.

Finding the default application changer should almost be filed as a bug
as well. It is pretty hard to find with out the help of google.

Title:
  Default-application-chooser doesent do anything

Status in “gnome-control-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I tried to edit what applications to be default in my Unbuntu setup, but apperantly it does not apply my new settings through out the system. Eg. I used to have banshee as my default music player, but now I want to use the Movie player to play music. I change the settings in my system settings but still banshee opens every time I try to open a music file. 
  Same applies for movies, which used to be played in Movie player, but should now open in VLC. They still opens in Movie Player though
