    [CONFIGURATION] right click to change default media player

    I know.......this is a great big ho-hum for the "regulars".

    But for folks considering moving to Kubuntu/KDE...

    I just discovered it and it is kinda cool and shows the level of sophisitication............and EASE...of KDE/Kubuntu.

    One can right click the title of a video, like an .flv
    Go to "properties".
    Click "file type options".
    Go to the application preference order box.
    Click an application that one would like to have as default to open the file, as in this case, "videos".
    Then go to the right and click "move up".
    When the desired app is at the top, apply/ok/ok.

    This may seem like a small thing but I can remember not too long ago when one had to go to the control panel and wade through things trying to figure out which one would change the preference.

    Again, just a small thing, but indicative of the attention to detail, and I am sure user requests, from KDE/Kubuntu.

    NOTE: If a mod would want to move this to another sub-forum, such as maybe "help the new guy" or something that is perfectly fine.

    woodappreciative smoke.
Working...
