    I don't see that here. Does it still happen for you?
What's the mime-type nautilus gives you for the file (right-click->properties)?
Which version of shared-mime-info are you using?
If it shows up as something that's not an audio file, could you please get the
first 1000k of the file ("dd if=file.mpg of=test.mpg bs=1024 count=1000"), and
make them available?
    Thanks for looking into this. With latest updates for Fedora 8 as of 2008-03-27 I still see this problem. To reproduce I did this: # init 3 # useradd mrtest # passwd mrtest <logout everybody, login as mrtest> $ startx $ wget http://www.redhat.com/v/magazine/ogg/cox-issues.ogg Properties for the file is video/x-theora+ogg. When double clicked, Rhythmbox is trying to play it. If I open Totem and drag the file to it, video plays ok. localhost:~> rpm -q shared-mime-info shared-mime-info-0.23-1.fc8 localhost:~> rpm -V shared-mime-info localhost:~> There's unfortunately nothing we can do here. Ogg files (video and/or audio) used to all have the .ogg suffix. Rename your file to .ogv, and it should work as expected. But this happens also with .mpg and .wmv files :( And, yes, with .ogv. If I rename the file mentioned above, it is also opened with Rhythmbox. shared-mime-info-0.23-2.fc8 has been submitted as an update for Fedora 8 shared-mime-info-0.23-2.fc8 has been pushed to the Fedora 8 testing repository. If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report. If you want to test the update, you can install it with su -c 'yum --enablerepo=updates-testing update shared-mime-info'. You can provide feedback for this update here: http://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/F8/FEDORA-2008-2786 I'm happy to confirm that shared-mime-info-0.23-2.fc8 fixes the issue. Thanks! Leave a positive comment on the update page then. Long since fixed and verified, closing.  |
