SOLARIS: Nautilus will not play mp3 files from top-level dir if mp3 dir has child dirs
Last modified: 2004-12-22 21:47:04 UTC
To recreate: -------------- (1) Start Nautilus - create an mp3 folder (MP3_A) in users home dir (2) Add an mp3 to the new mp3 folder - play the mp3 by double clicking on it => xmms is started and mp3 starts playing. (3) Close xmms. (4) Create a new folder withing the top-level mp3 folder (MPP3_B) - add an mp3 to the new folder and start it playing (double click on mp3) => xmms is started and mp3 starts playing. (5) Close xmms. (6) Go to the top-level mp3 dir (MP3_A) and attempt to play the current mp3 => Nothing happens - xmms is not started up and the mp3 is not played. shane.oconnor@sun.com 2001-08-28 Further investigation revealed that in the above case nautilus is attempting to use mpg123 to play the mp3 file in the top level dir while using xmms to play the mp3 file in the child dir. A workaround is to set the file type/program relationship in gnomecc for mp3 to be equal to mp3/xmms. Justification: solaris specific Work around: A workaround is to set the file type/program relationship in gnomecc for mp3 to be equal to mp3/xmms.
Changing to "old" target milestone for all bugs laying around with no milestone set.
Not quite a dup but presumably the solution to that one would also fix this. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 81221 ***
