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

 

We've added support for mediaplayer-app to be a conent-hub desitination
for videos such that they can be opened directly rather than having to
go through gallery. Note that the video will be imported into ~/Videos,
which is also read by gallery, so the video will be correctly available
in gallery to view at a later time after you close mediaplayer-app

Comment #3 is still valid. Filemanager should request to open videos via
url:// rather than content-hub operation.

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.
