Hi everyone,

the mplayer.desktop file of mplayer 1.0rc1 specifies the command line
for gmplayer as gmplayer %U, this was added in svn r24600. So it is
supposed to open URLs when called from nautilus. When I click a media
file in nautilus, I get this error message:

Playing file:///home/goetz/new%20directory/test.mpg.
File not found: '/home/goetz/new%20directory/test.mpg'
Failed to open file:///home/goetz/new%20directory/test.mpg.

So it doesn't support URLs with spaces.

Regards, Götz
