Oh boy that is very subtle. Ok thanks this solved my problem, although the other way, using "Open With" directly, said that the selection would persist so this is surely a fault. Also the preference can't be set in the System Preferences. I found a bug report which said much the same thing for a different type of file so I added my 2 pennorth to this bug report re MP3 files. I will revisit that bug report to add this workaround.On Sun, 20 Feb 2011 21:56:21 +0000, Russell Gadd wrote:On 20/02/11 19:30, Camaleón wrote:On Sun, 20 Feb 2011 17:16:12 +0000, Russell Gadd wrote: (...)So I now try right clicking on the file and choose Open with "Other Application", choose "audacious" and tick the box which says "Remember this appliction for MP3 audio files". Ok so it opens this time. I close audacious and then click on another MP3 file and it opens (briefly) with Movie Player. Is there a setting somewhere I can tweak or is this a bug to report?Hum... have you tried by right-clicking over the mp3 file, select "properties", go to "Open with" tab and pick from there the app? Many ways to do the same thing :-)?? This is precisely what my paragraph meant. It doesn't persist.Nope, both steps are different and lead to different options. Hint: did you select "properties" when you right-clicked over the icon? Greetings,
In any event, thanks again. Russell
