Video and Video Thumbnails in App Image

[Gilles Caulier]

Not reproducible here. Under Linux Mageia5, when i double click over a
video thumbnail, it open the default video player set in KDE desktop : VLC.
This one play the video as expected...

I tried with Xine and Dragon Player : it work perfectly...

So, there is a problem on your system...
