[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1280794] Re: Can't change default "Open with" application
I saw a similar problem in 16.04 with PDFs being opened with ImageMagick. Trying to open With Document Viewer and set that as the default made no change. I saw in mimeapps.list that there was both an image/pdf and an applications/pdf entry. I removed the image/pdf entry that pointed to ImageMagick, and left the very last entry in the file, which was the applications/pdf entry with Evince. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1280794 Title: Can't change default "Open with" application Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am on Ubuntu 13.10 using nautilus 1:3.8.2-0ubuntu2.2.

With .mp4 can add another that will cause this - video/x-m4v So for example if a user sets Videos as default thru Default Applications then these 3 are entered in mimeapps.list video/mp4= video/mp4v-es= video/x-m4v= Nautilus only sets the first one so if the other 2 exist then the default for .mp4 cannot be altered thru nautilus until they are removed or edited to intended new default. Also if another player is set thru Default Applications the above 3 are in mimeapps.list then the default for .mp4 will only be changed if that player has all 3 in it's .desktop's MimeType= line -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1280794 Title: Can't change default Open with application Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: I am on Ubuntu 13.10 using nautilus 1:3.8.2-0ubuntu2.2.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 1280794] Re: Can't change default Open with application
On a closer look I don't see any big issue here. I happened to choose the only filetype as a test/example that *I've found* to be an issue - .mp4 When one uses ..Details Default, ect on video there are these 2 lines concerning .mp4 created - video/mp4= video/mp4v-es= So when both lines exist with a = of player A then nautilus properties open with doesn't work properly on a .mp4 when trying to set one or the other to player B as default mimeapps.list will reflect the change but nautilus will not until the other line is either removed or edited to match ( most users will only have video/mp4 files.. So I guess this is a valid bug, albeit small, if would be good to know if there are any other 'conflicts' in video or audio mimes before considering an upstream bug. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to nautilus in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1280794 Title: Can't change default Open with application Status in “nautilus” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I am on Ubuntu 13.10 using nautilus 1:3.8.2-0ubuntu2.2.

I am trying to change default application to open .avi files. I right- click an .avi file select Properties, go to Open With. There is a default application there (banshee) and recommended (VLC media player). I select VLC media player and click Set as default button, selection jumps back to banshee, Set as default button disabled and nothing else happens. Nautilus still opens .avi files with banshee.
