            Bug ID: 362903
           Summary: Akregator no longer asks about what to do when
                    clicking media links
           Product: akregator
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
          Reporter: Harald.Demian.Brunner at gmail.com

Since the last upgrade (about version: 5.2.0) when clicking links in the feed
item contents view, it no longer shows the dialog with the options "Open with
<default app>", "Open with...", "Save As...", etc. at least when it comes to
video links. It now opens those in a new tab, subsequently freezing the
application for a while because it fails to play them properly.

In the recent version there also was a check box on that dialog to set the
action as default, i never did that though and did not find any settings for
mime types in Akregator's settings either. This is an inconvenience given that
i now have to manually copy the link and open it using the OS.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Have link to e.g. video/mpeg
2. Click it

Actual Results:  
Opens new tab trying to play video there

Expected Results:  
Ask for action (open, save, etc.)
