[Bug 1518332] Re: Media player not registered with file manager as a handler for .MP4 files....

 

The same is true with opening a photo - it doesn't need to be imported
to the Gallery via content-hub to be openend, it can be opened with url-
dispatcher photo://<url>. This is true for any photos that live beneath
~/Pictures  (or /media/phablet/ which is SD card path) as gallery has
access to this diretory. Any photos that live outside these directories
would have to use content-hub to first import into gallery.

  Media player not registered with file manager as a handler for .MP4
  files....

Status in Canonical System Image:
  Confirmed
Status in mediaplayer-app package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  I would expect to be able to open a .MP4 video from the file manager,
  and have it play in Media Player... but the it seems that Media Player
  is not an option for playback, only Gallery, which is not terribly
  suitable.
