Version: unspecified (using KDE 4.4.5) OS: Linux Would be nice if you could pick a program i.e. xmms or xine and make it a default media player the other way... by picking xmms and making it the first program for every extension it supports, instead of going through each extension. so you can quickly switch between which media player as a first choice for all file types the media player is good for. Reproducible: Didn't try
Good idea.
This is how windows does it yeah, and honestly it makes a lot of sense. For example my favourite image viewer is Gwenview.. but I installed Ultimaker Cura and somehow it thought that it was more appropriate for viewing regular jpg imags than an image viewer... So If I could just choose 'gwenview' and select 'set default for all file associations of this program" or something. We can collectively hate Windows, but this feature in their interface is such a time saver. https://4sysops.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/12/Set-Adobe-Reader-as-default-program.png
I think the bug #305136 have to be resolved at first. It really makes me mad when the touching of JPEG from download history in firefox begin launching a heavy Gimp instead of Gwenview (that is the default app for JPEG in Settings), directory opens by easytag instead of Dolphin, telegram launching thunderbird instead of kmail and so on. P/S I observe this behavior in KDE Neon 20.04 but not in Kubuntu 20.04
