Re: [trinity-users] KIOExec error playing DVD

I'm noticing that when I right-click "open with..." and put VLC, it's
trying to open this file:

VLC could not open the file "/home/curt/system:/media/sr0/VIDEO_TS".
(No such file or directory)

Of course not, because the "/home/curt/system:" part should not be
appended to the directory.

Anyone else notice this?
