BDIFD ("Boy, Do I Feel Dumb"):

playlist formats (like .asx and .pls) are handled in mplayer. You just have to add the -playlist parameter in front of the %s. No fancy file parsing necessary. So you can scrap my custom .asx handler and make it just like .avi, just change it to

Code:

mplayer -playlist %s

EDIT: I installed the latest dbus-switchboard, removed the custom handler, and edited the new config files as follows:

.dbus-switch-apps.cfg, added the following line:

Code:

MPlayer-playlist,cli,/usr/bin/mplayer -playlist %params%

.dbus-switch-xref.cfg, added the following lines:

Code:

.pls,MPlayer-playlist
.asf,MPlayer-playlist
.asx,MPlayer-playlist

Also, I'm changing my mind about mplayer performance with wmv streams. I am getting lots of "J-type picture is not supported" errors when trying to play those streams, while the realmedia streams seem to play more cleanly in Media Player.
