Re-encoding takes time, which is why I suggested writing your own GUI in the first place, unless you have lots of time :D. > A bit off-topic but is there a way to launch the default player for a > certain filetype with bash? Even if it's just for Gnome. mailcap(5) should be useful, for starters. You could write a ~/.mailcap defining which players should play which files, and write a script (say, default-player) that reads ~/.mailcap to determine the right player. Cheers, Zakame -- Zak B.
