[Bug 1518332] Re: FileManager should have option for viewing rather than exporting

 

This looks like a duplicate/linked to bug 1413821 [0], please see the discussion there as well where we stated that it needs to check if the path is within, for example for music.
/home/*/Music
/media/*/*/Music

Then use url-handler, otherwise use content-hub. This should be the same
for documents, music, photos, videos etc.

Or alternatively for music (possibly photos, videos) check if it is in
the MediaScanner store.

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.
