GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 110677
gst-media-view takes over nautilus
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
after installing GST-MEDIA-VIEW, it becomes the default view for all unknown or unassigned file types. I have no idea how to remove this, except for uninstalling it, since it crashes whenever I try to remove it via menu, and refuses to play nice with bug-buddy.
Actually, we should remove that view until it's fixed. ;).
Yeah, this is very annoying. It is even set as a handler for folders and for unknown protacols..
The offending code is <oaf_attribute name="bonobo:additional_uri_schemes" type="stringv"> <item value="*"/> </oaf_attribute> in Gst-Player-View.server Can I commit a fix for this(have to get cvs access but shouldn't be too hard), or is someone else going to take it?
http://cvs.sf.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gstreamer/gst-player/view/Gst-Player-View.server.in.in.diff?r1=1.3&r2=1.4 Christian already did that.
It is now fixed - however, in order to see the fix in effect, you have to replace the configuration file (apt-get remove --purge; apt-get install in DEBIAN) and restart oafd (by running oaf-slay). Perhaps these instructions should be in the next version announcment.
