Luis Filipe Nassif commented on TIKA-1466:
------------------------------------------
We have hit this again. We encountered some MTS videos and tried to define a
mimetype for them, but already exists a model/vnd.mts mimetype declaring *.MTS
glob pattern. I think definitions in custom-mimetypes.xml files should override
the built-in Tika ones. What do you think fellow devs?
> Enable overriding of mimetype glob pattern definitions

> Key: TIKA-1466
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TIKA-1466
> Project: Tika
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: mime
> Affects Versions: 1.6
> Reporter: Luis Filipe Nassif
> Priority: Major
>
> I think it is important to enable an overriding of the default
> tika-mimetypes.xml glob pattern definitions within a custom-mimetypes.xml.
> Currently, you can not define in a custom mimetype an already used glob
> pattern, even if you redefine in custom-mimetypes.xml the first mimetype
> using the conflicting glob pattern. The same extension can be used by
> different applications in different domains or datasets.
