Summary: Regression: since 4.5.2, KDE downloads multimedia
files instead of letting applications stream them
Product: kde
Version: 4.5
Platform: Compiled Sources
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
AssignedTo: unassigned-bugs at kde.org
ReportedBy: m.eggers-1 at student.utwente.nl
Version: 4.5 (using Devel)
OS: Linux
When I open files on the network (I tried SMB and SFTP so far), KDE downloads
the file to /var/tmp/kdecace-<user>/krun and launches the application with the
downloaded file, instead of passing the link to the application and letting it
stream the file. This does neither depend on the application the file is opened
from, nor on the application the file is to be opened in. All the applications
I tried have %U as an argument, which should make KDE launch the application
with the direct URL.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. install KDE 4.5.2
2. open any network directory in any browser (for example, in dolphin, sftp to
your own computer) and launch any multimedia file with some application that
has %U as argument (for example VLC).
Actual Results:
the file is downloaded and then the application is launched, playing the
downloaded file
Expected Results:
the application should have been launched directly, streaming the file from the
network.
Please add the entry "4.5.2" to KDE Version, so I can be more specific.
